        Neither actual nor dream, but very cool. The first Subie sold in the states, rear-motorcycle-engined, and to my eye a charming cross between a Mini and a Beetle.



        Think it, be it.

          Such a beautiful specimen I had to share.

          Think it, be it.

            Talking about cardiologist…Damn that’s nice.  However, I show that to Laura and I’ll need a proctologist to remove her foot from me.  😃

                        The new Batmobile has been testing at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

                        OK, it's the McMurtry Speirling, an electric car with additional downforce provided by a fan. It's just cut two seconds off the record for the hill climb at Goodwood.

                          Purchased one of my dream cars last week: 2022 4Runner 4wd. It's Army Green and absolutely spectacular.

                          Weird dream car I guess but a neighbor of mine had one when I was growing up and I always thought the rear window glass being retractable was so very cool. In fact, his was green as well. Kinda cool coincidence I suppose.

                                      I like the 4Runner! So you will keep it species-appropriate in all kinds of terrain. You plan on Overlanding?

                                        Thank you! Going to take it out this weekend to a dark sky park and the following week to some fire trails to kick it off. I will probably need some more aggressive tires fairly soon and more light. But she’s ready to go!

                                        We won’t talk about how I nearly put it in 4lo in the bank parking lot. Only 4wd I’ve driven before was a quadratrac Jeep.

                                            It was a very flat parking lot.  😃

                                            Do you overland? Do you have a rig?
