What did you see on the road today?

After getting oil change done on my Outback, I saw these vintage items at the Galpin Porsche Palace in Santa Clarita.

Search Mini Wildgoose Motorhome and see if it looks something like that.

Nope. I saw a box.

...only marking I could make out as I passed it was an emblem that had one word (ten letters?), followed by "-21" ...

Short by 5 letters, but still maybe as tall as a big pickup, longer, pretty much a box -- a Vixen-21?

Saw the Chucky van again this morning; it's an orange Econoline Drag Van with Chucky airbrushed on either side. Also a '79 type GMC monster truck straight out of the 70s by the looks of it. Was parked in the Metro parking lot of all places.

I did not take a picture of every vehicle...... though I wanted to.  When making distance, stopping is not really an option.
In Washington state, never see these.  I was working at an office on US89, Dodge had these test cars before they were released driving by, I thought they were custom.

Easy drive-by shot.

Vernal, Utah.

Somewhere in Wyoming.

Saw 3 Tesla Cybertrucks on the wide open range.

I few I spotted yesterday. Wish I had gotten better pictures of the two fords.

That would be way cool to build it like the one I saw.

By George...I think he's got it!

Though my recollection is a boxier piece, perhaps it was 40 years of wear 'n tear that made it appear so.

Saw a clean maroon Lincoln Mark III and a maroon ‘67 Chevy Impala convertible with a white top when out and about on this beautiful early fall Sunday.
