Valid criticism, but ultimately they’re all various shades of awful.

The other image is full of poorly smudge-filled spots across the entire center section, too, it’s really bizarre. The left side also looks like a broken pano, an entirely separate photography failing. It looks like they wanted to conceal a foundation layout or some of the structural material. Maybe branded yard…

It’s just missing a bit of turndown at the front. And wear and tear.

They’re made by Howe & Howe, and they’ll happily sell you one.

Nice writeup, and great to see that they were able to directly answer some of your questions! This is good Jalopnik. Trucklopnik. Expedopnik. Circumvanilopnik. I’m just going to go now.

Adorbs.

I don’t know that this would merit their attention, given how distinctly proportioned the resultant kit is and how few are likely to be produced.

The floor in Koots isn’t even that bad, these days.

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “Hertz”) has made the strategic decision to sell approximately 20,000 electric vehicles (“EVs”) from its U.S. fleet, or about one-third of the global EV fleet.

Retail democracy at work.

I still haven’t played the two Last of Us games (and really have no excuse, both are right on my shelf), but Kaitlyn’s portrayal of the character Loretta McCready in the show Justified was phenomenal. Such a good show.

You’re not wrong, but this type of build was also a specific subculture of offroad minitrucks (mini monsters) for a hot minute in the late 80s and early 90s. I haven’t popped the link to see if it was originally built like that, but either way, it’s pretty clear that this was the intended outcome, personal preferences…

The seat mounted screens can feck right off, but the rest is 100% bang-on.

“It’s as if someone shot a ray gun at our car,” he told the news outlet, adding, “I’d never seen anything like it.”

Aaand it’s magically fixed.
