Don't I know

 

When my Pinto station wagon is rocking, don’t come knocking

 

If the Pinto's a-rockin, don't come a-knockin'

 

Guess we know who got a DUI in the past.

Myself I don't believe Alcoholism is a disease it is a choice. Weak people use the whole disease line of shit as a crutch.
Having a worthless drunk for a parent makes me lacist to booze bags.

 

If you got to choose your parents I'd agree with you. Since there's verifiable scientific evidence that shows alcoholism is a bonafied medical disorder with a hereditary component, I don't agree with your opinion.

 

My sibling and I don't drink none of my Parent's siblings are drunks. So I call BS on the studies.

I am happy to say said parent died Pickled and will never endanger others on the road.

 

When I driving' my mom's '04 Honda Odyssey, I wanted to get a license plate for the front that said "Don't knocking when this van's rocking"...

The van was purchased in (and originally registered in) Virginia, and as such it had a front license plate mount. Pennsylvania only requires one plate so that left space for a vanity plate!

 

I'm sorry to hear that if you mean your parent(s)? died in an accident, however a single case does not refute the huge amount of verifiable data collected. Both of my grandfathers were / are alcoholics and I don't drink, but I'm thankful I'm not as prone to drinking as some other people - I've heard their stories and I'm grateful I don't have to deal with that level of the affliction as others!

I thought you might like this one. It's a mostly stock C10 Silverado long bed, in your favorite color! I spotted it in the parking lot of a SEPTA train station. The reason I say mostly stock is because if you look closely at the second-to-last photo, you will see that it has an aftermarket backup camera above the rear license plate (circled in red). It appears to be a wireless backup camera as there does not seem to be a wire or coax cable of any sort...

I dig it. Throw some steelies back on it and were good to go!

 

I wasn't even necessarily that upset that the prick had a few too many...

If if the old man had just taken responsibility and said "I'm sorry, it was totally my fault" and either wrote me a check for $2,600 to fix my Tacoma or just not lied to his insurance company, everyone would have been happier. I'm not one of those "Ow, my neck!" litigious types. All I wanted was for my Tacoma, my baby, to be restored to pre-accident condition. The twat couldn't even give me that...

 

I love that it has a backup camera discreetly installed...

I took those pics almost two years ago and just noticed the backup camera today!

 

I saw this one in the spectator parking lot at Raceway Park (look it up) last September...

I don't know if this truck was restored to stock, or if it was kept in a garage its whole life, but I've seen very few stock square-bodies looking this good!

This one has a Cummins 12V and NV4500 5-speed! Believe it or not, while that is a factory GM two-tone style, at least one of those colors is a Ford color...

This truck is reliable and fully functional as a daily driver. It has working A/C and power everything! The owner was so impressed with the pictures I took that he tracked me down later and gave me his email so I could send them to him!

holeeeeeeeee fuck that is gorgeous!

 

When I go to car shows, people are so impressed with my camera and the quality of my photography skills that they think I am some kind of professional...

Maybe I should do this for money?

So I drove to Doylestown today, solely to walk my boss's dog, because it was so nice...

Backup camera worked fine when I backed out of my driveway...

I got to the bar (boss had Tully at work today), and while backing my truck into the space, I got no backup camera but a message telling me to check my connection...

I shifted into and out of reverse a few times and couldn't make it work...

I put the truck in park and shut off the engine, and the I restarted it. When put into reverse multiple times, the backup camera worked fine...

Kinda glad I'm replacing this Boss head unit!

If it starts acting up again, I'll take a picture and post it...

So guess what my problem is with regards to taking pictures of trucks, at least locally...?

I've already photographed most of them, and I'd say about 80% (not including the ones at shows) were with permission from the owner!

I've pretty much run out of photography subjects locally, so I find myself driving farther and farther for car shows!
