Yep I’m hallucinating or yep you see it?

I am feeling like GM suddenly decided to use a bunch of Volvo design language? I couldn’t place it, but then the pass-through in the interior got me. Am I hallucinating?

2nd vid: Haven’t seen tires that bald on a truck since I left CA.

Good luck to you as well with your struggles.

You are most welcome.

Yes, that is how it works, no matter how defensive you get about it.

Yeah, I’ll keep smuggling Ronald’s patties back to the land of chronic diarrhea and open sewers anyway.

The flights I am on, you smell the people more than the food anyway. Trust me, it’s the least of your problems. Last flight back from LHR, someone put their in-flight meal down one of the lavatories anyway.

Addiction is hell on the weak minded.

As the guy with 4 double cheeseburgers stuffed into his carry-on, I resemble that remark.

I go 9 months between trip to McD’s. Let me have my oozy goodness.

Internet connection is crap tonight, couldn’t watch the video. Living out here is like going back to dial-up a lot of the time.

Going “antiquing” I’m sure

It’s only the big cities, in most of the state you are free to run people off the road without paying anything more than some fuel tax.

You made me spill my goddamned coffee, Jackwagon!

Wait, a diesel engine died at 140K?

I have seen many fatalities in these Isuzus (vintages stretching across a couple decades) here in East Africa, where driving is a little more exciting than stateside.

The taller dump trucks and tractors that are cab-overs do alright a lot of the time(short of flipping them, that’s generally hamburger time) because…

I live in a place where people die regularly in all sorts of vehicles. Particular horror is reserved for HiAce vans and the Isuzu cab-overs. The taller cab-overs do better, but the shorter ones like these designs aren’t tall enough and it really goes sideways when they flip.

Would be interesting, but I think it would be a rather remote chance of an elective war. The CCP wouldn’t chance making the DPRK go nutters and use nukes near some of their best state-run farms in the North East. They have to import so much food as it is, it would be a bigger national loss than the industrial…

My wife loves the looks of these things a lot, I hate them. That and I imagine what a Sinotruck or SCANIA dumptruck would to so one on a two lane highway way too often.

I am between Port Sudan and Durban, somewhere inland a few hours. :-)

Sorry, I betray a bit too much for comfort sometimes as it is.

My own eyes beg to differ.
