Our Cars (dream or actual)

Redneck town. Stuart, just a bit North of West Palm Beach. My childhood was properly filled with lifted trucks, swamp buggies, airboats, hog hunting, Real Tree overalls, and Sonny's BBQ.
Here's a few more rides from back in the day:
Dad's
Disregard the missing wheel… that was my fault, too, haha.
A friend's rig I helped build

Nice. Sounds about right. I miss muddin.
I lived about 30mins below the Green Swamp in Lakeland.Damn, I miss Sonny's Sweet Sauce so much. Anytime I have a friend coming up(live in NYC now) I have them bring me a few bottles.

And for everybody outside the Sunshine State, if ya don't know, now ya know.

oh man… Sonny's is the best BBQ ever. had it in Gainesville a couple of years ago. that sliced pork...
-
Didn't realize Sonny's was from Florida. I used to eat it all the time growing up in Charlotte. They do make a pretty respectable pork bbq.

This was parked outside of my tent a few days ago. I thought it was pretty wicked… What make is it???
It's a russian UAZ. We still have loads of those in the army. Absolute worthless pieces of crap.

@Jii:
Discoveries are totally ok too :). Regarding the parking pic above, parking spaces in the city center have decreased by about 60-70% thanks to the copious amounts of snow we've gotten in the last two weeks. No shortage for 4x4 parking spaces though..
This means that when you're living in a big city here, you'll need a 4x4.
We country boys get by with Minis (whose bottom is constantly scraping snow which is accumulated between tire tracks) -
Saw this exact same scenario when I was living in New Jersey. The roads in the cities were full of potholes, uneven pavement and miscellaneous crap, so folks drove SUVs. People out in the boonies were driving Mustangs and Camaros.
As a fun random fact, the drug gangs in Camden cruised around on ATVs- a cop friend told me it was because when police chased them, they could hop sidewalks, cut through vacant lots and other maneuvers that police cars couldn't replicate. Nothing like adapting rural tools for urban life…

It is funny how you summed up about 25 years of my life in that post….
