I remember those trains as a kid. I once saw one that derailed. No spilled oil from that puppy.Alright, I'm firing this one then.
What kind of engine is this?
What kind of oil do you think it takes?
Go.
(And sorry about the Audi in one shot. Kind of ruins it.)

Tire today at work. Notice the bottom. It was majorly dry rotted. It was also 11 years old too. I sold 4 tires on it because they were all 11 years old. The customer who I had the advisor get so i could show them said wow that must be the rumble I’m hearing. I said I think you’re driving with a bomb that could burst any minute. He said well let’s move it to the front and I said no way, you need new tires. This was an 06 Corolla with 130,000 miles on it. I was doing some other work to it and noticed that from a distance. The customer didn’t understand why the age mattered but was surprised at the dry rot. He ordered 4 new tires and they will be installed tomorrow.
The Rivian service and delivery center is hopping
Tow trucks delivering cars, cars in and out for service, people taking delivery
I hope they make it

It's weird how wavy the tread is.

Man that mailman jeep looking thingy is wretched!
Why are we blurring out public signs and phone numbers? Seems really odd?That's awesome! I believe I have 5 of them now. (I used to have many more but, 2016 and 2020 were not good years and I believe I had to spend them as money.) I'll have to check when I get home, they are in a drawer. Got my 5th ? about two weeks ago..
Here is a random Mercedes-Benz Geländewagen that really does kind of look like a Volkswagen Thing, I'm not even sure if I like these. They are tall and narrow.

Heading to a Asian Copart?
RV'ing achievement unlocked. Eating lunch in a Wal-Mart parkinglot.
Semi-funny story. My wife and daughter were arguing about what they wanted for lunch on the way home from our trip. I'd just filled up with gas and was parked waiting for them to make up their mind and got tired of the discussion.
'I'm just going to go into the trailer and have a sandwich and some chips that we have left over'
You'd have thought I invented something great as the lightbulb came on in their eyes. Never crossed their mind we are dragging half a house behind us, stocked with food.

They really gotta up the clothing allowance
These $180 sweaters really don't last long, and I'm not buying another one yet
Maybe I can talk them into some OT

I'll answer. Ok, so. The larger/ largest blue marking in one pic isn't blurring out a sign; if that's what you are referring to. The other ones (that perhaps are more "logos", you may be assuming signs) are to keep some semblance of privacy for those that may be glancing. The whole "What's available on the Internet" thing. Instead of "I LIVE AT ________" just 100% obvious for all to see at a glance. (Most don't care.)
Phone number? Like the one of Joe's Towing ? Well, I remember @wwillson making some kind of statement once that he feels it is rude to randomly post up a picture of someone else's license plate, at least without asking them. In an attempt to err on the side of caution and not run afoul of.. let us say. "BITOG Management," I decided to err on the side of caution.
If you need a tow I can look up their number and DM it to as that truck seems to be out on calls tonight. However I'm not in Canada...
Here are some random photos of what I'm giving away to whoever needs them. There should be a formal thread about it; first person that DMs me (and I assume has a vehicle they can fit? Otherwise why would they) with info on where to mail it, it's yours.

Here is the.. Triumph TR6? TR7? That I pass every day on the way to work.
Here are some unruly yet peaceable (this morning) beautiful Canadians giving me the stare-down and not exactly letting me pass. Until they are good and well ready to. Hmmm... What do we call those? Starts with J or A.. ha.
Zoomed the first one in a little to remove (the hood of my car.)
Random: Pretty sure we had this one. A "Hermes Mogano" by Salvi. Looks the same..
Engine? Oil?

To be fair - I expected more damage from such a hit. I think it did well, I'd trust my life to it at in-town speeds.
