i saw this Nissan pick up.  it's not anything special, it just amused me.  reminded me of a Tyco Bandit.

It definitely has the right stance for one of those!

2001-ish Suburban with "Powerstroke 7.3" emblems on the fenders and tailgate.

Haven’t seen it in years, but there used to be a mid 90’s Escort Wagon around here that had an Excursion badge on the hatch and a gigantic clamp on tail pipe extension.

Today I saw a Dodge 3500 pickup with FX-4 stickers on the bed sides.

Technically not "on the road", but think it's worth sharing.  I couldn't take a picture of a Tesla painted fluorescent Hunter Orange.

At Mt. Baker WA ski area, I always dug the Snowcats, imagine building a model of that!

On the Mt. Baker Highway, one of those hoarders who has NO TRESPASSING, CLOSED signs.

The sound of a healthy small block on the street outside added to our delicious breakfast.IMG_8399.thumb.jpeg.e9035b7437e5c42eef4e9d379b483d0c.jpeg

Model A Sedan found just down the block from me... now, to find & talk to the owner!

What a beautiful Model A. Get her out, cleaned up, get the old flat head fired up, adjust the brakes and head on down the road.

My wife and I were out for lunch and coffee today, decided to go up around Dublin, OH. There's an area up there called Shawnee Hills, and next to the center with the coffee house was a car lot. Parked out front was a Porsche Carrera, a couple of Bentley Continental GT's (coupe and drophead), a 1971 Mustang Mach 1 convertible and a Jaguar E-Type convertible. 

Edit: Forgot the Rolls Royce. :)

Took a scenic drive out east of my area to the rolling hills of Geauga County and Lake County, Ohio and saw a sharp apple green ‘69 Chevelle and a bright blue ‘65 Chevelle 2dr sedan.   Stopped at a couple overlooks on Lake Erie, the water still blustery from all the storms this week…

For my return home from Desert Scale Classic, wanted to take the back way.  I saw an ambulance ahead of me, then came around a corner and saw this.  I haven't seen a report yet, must have been a fatal, had to turn around.

I see many cool cars around town, never ready to snap a picture.  Jaguar XK-150?  (side note, those milled recessed reflectors make great potholes later after prolonged wet weather)

Today I drove the Chino Valley to Jerome narrow gauge railroad (1894 - 1920), a very rough road.  Since this thread says "what did you see" I think it counts. ?

Pretty sure that’s the earlier XK120 model.

Ferrari 365GTB Daytona in silver followed by a parked Ferrari Roma (at least I think that’s what it was) in a deep blue.  Of course I’m in the midst of a long overdue vacation in Paris and London, (thanks for the planning, Costco Travel, but do you heard the plaintive cry’s from our bank account?) and this in the Vendome neighborhood.  Kinda like going to Beverly Hills and seeing a Rolls Royce. Lots of cars we don’t see in the US like Daycias, SEAT’s, dark grey Peugeot’s that seem to be the favorite of plain clothes cops. In Amsterdam seems all the late model taxis are electric and a surprisingly large percentage are Mustang Mach-E’s.

There is someone in our town of less than 20,000 that has good tastes in daily drivers. Several times I've seen him in everything from Aston Martins to Lamborghinis to various Porsches. This is one of the few times I've seen one of his cars parked.

This Brit Austin is propped up in front of our local cinema. Perhaps a Harry Potter promotional?

Spotted this on my bike ride - somebody drove their pickup through foul weather to fetch this Camaro, with its dusty-from-sitting-in-storage roof?
