Contrary to all the truck commercials, you don't have to annihilate half the earth to enjoy your vehicle.
Lucky that most of them never see the kind of use demonstrated in the commercials. Back of the mall parking lot is as far off grid as most will get. You can barely see the starbucks from there.

I enjoy my vehicles.
They aren't boring belly button cars.
And I get compliments ALL DAY LONG.
It's hard to return those back about those bland, bean mobiles they're driving.

I call them Super Dooties.
Its what Great Danes do.
With the demise of the Australian auto industry after they milked all the government subsidies they could promising to keep the plants open, we have a special hatred of the Yank Tanks that don't fit in standard parking spaces here and of course have headlights at heights that shouldn't be allowed.
They don't fit in most parking spaces here. They're utterly outrageous.

That's interesting. Not really surprising, but it sounds like something a simple letter-writing campaign could influence. Because everybody hates how bright headlights are these days, it seems like an easy win for any politician.

Back to the future!
Stripped to the bare metal and treated.
Getting panels lined up.
Going to mock up the major engine components in the engine bay soon... just to make sure things will fit properly.
Some bodywork.
Very slowly getting ready for paint.
