Push bumpers and hitches it’s how I roll. Good for tailgaters and non blinker using pricks who bitch about feeling their bite.
Pflugerville, that bomber douche had us blocked off. Grew up in Austin and in first year of moving to pflugerville have had FBI and Homeland running around my neighborhood twice.
I get a wave in my old ranch jeep cj5 from everyone. Hasn’t been inspected since the 80's. When I drive around the neighborhood even the police just wave.

Your getting a head start banking that road karma. I’m sure it will come in handy for the next moab trip.
Who knows. First people would need to understand Rude Negro’s Seinfeld reference. Perhaps being in the grey long enough for short attention spans to be an issue. Probably just not as full of whit and comedic value to rate more.
Austin to Moab is a bit over 16 hours and I have found that to be as far as I can go safely. Although I have done the Austin to Cali and other long drives in one shot. I would not recommend it. West Texas and New Mexico at night is wonderfully. Just wondering what the jack rabbits would do to that lowered Porsche as…
“Roaming the Alaskan Highway, my luxurious woolen socks wrapped in a pair of freshly broken in insulated Danners perfectly negated the need for floorboards.

The only troll worthy stuff I want to see here would be a discussion of the virtues of prism ownership versus lame duck corrolla posers!
No drama rules out Rude Negro. However having him put his seal of disapproval on every episode might be a good gag.
“A few homes in a wealthy part of Texas” Bahh
Exactly what I thought when I saw the van.
I would rather make it the whole way than go really fast for a quarter of the trek. I love my old jeeps and get them out locally here in Texas. However they can be finicky senior citizens bitching and moaning the whole way. Sometimes needing a little rest, bit of duct tape and a tapping of the hammer to get home ? The…
You could always show some Jalopnik spirit. Go over to your neighbor get to know him. Maybe help get the ones that have some hope up and running. Write about it and take some pictures. Most of us here are a sucker for that stuff. Just a thought. The city I live in has people moving into “culture” areas for many…
