What I currently drive.

Looking to build an Aoshima one in the near future. What annoys me is that they don't sell a set of Enkei Rs05RR separately, yet its available with their Rocket Bunny kit.

This is what I drive, a 1984 Chevrolet K30 Service truck, Ex-Fire Truck with 18K original miles.  I don't do service work, but I like service trucks. I also have a 1965 C10 Chevy, and I ride a 1996 Honda Goldwing SE.

The school bus in the picture has been sold, and that is not my barn.

I just traded my 3 year old VW GTI for a 2019 VW Golf R. I was tired of the front tires spinning every time a started from a standstill. 220 hp is still too much for FWD. Everything else about the car I loved, except for the FRD getting me  up my snow covered drive.

The Golf R has all wheel drive, the cure for everything GTI! It also has another 70HP from the same 2 liter Four.  As usual, VW has made this more than the sum of it's improvements and the much tightened suspension is more road compliant than the GTI was ,, how do they do this?  .. oh..  Active Suspension is how.

2014 Camry SE and a 2009 Venza. I drive the Venza most of the time because the Camry rides like it has no springs. And the last tank of gas in the Venza was a surprising 25.6 mpg. Combined driving with AC on half the time.

2016 Honda Civic EX-T Coupe.  It's the first turbo Honda has produced (not including race cars).
1969 Chevrolet C-10 pickup, that I call The Green Barge.  I just got different wheels put on, resurrected what should have been junked.  I also say it's a Ratty Ranch truck, sold in Safford Arizona, still have the warrantee plate.  It's fun to tinker with, been making some parts from scrap metal, not going to polish the paint because that requires maintenance, but then keeping the patina from getting messed up is also a challenge.  I get more compliments with it, than the Honda.

SOLD

IMG_3298_Fotor.jpg

Sold the '69 back to a family member of the original owner.  Found this '68 on Facebook Marketplace, in Scottsdale.  It has a 307 from a car, 4 speed, twice pipes.  Runs really well, has cancer in the usual areas, was sold in Idaho.  It's a survivor, was doomed to be given the bag custom castration.  Watched the fireworks from the bed, was by far the oldest vehicle in the parking lot. :lol:
