its a 2014 ford fiesta ST. turbo charged 200 horse, tuned suspension, 32 mpg. My commute is 132 miles . needless to say I change the oil every 5 weeks. full synthetic is expensive. Had 40 miles on it when I got it last july. coming up on 20,ooo.

!967 ford fairlane. had it since 1997. 289, 4bbl, headers, locker rear.. Had original paint until 2012, then decided to straighten her out and paint 94 ford red. Was daily driver until my commute whent up to 132 miles.

!980 Yamaha xs650. It was a basket case with a blown engine. rebuilt engine to 680cc, hard tailed it my self. big following for these bikes.

A work truck wife was driving. A suicide just whipped right in front of her head on. his pickup smashed up to windshield, with him in it. She walked away.
I also have a 2003 Suzuki marauder I rejetted and put apes on it, got rid of the 'duck butt' rear fender and put on a 'gangster' fender, but cant find a pic of it.

a ratty '99 Jeep Wrangler ( my son has destroyed the soft top as I let him use it during my 6mo "stays" in SE Asia )
1979 Vespa P200e that I use when in Thailand, 2 stroke..largest Vespa had during that time..and she'll scream at 60mph
2005 Vespa P150 ( last of the classic body style, 2 stroker, blue smoker) use it here in the US and of A
Love the Vespa and would own a million of 'em if I could.

Love to post the pics, but it sez they are too large..

Sorry about your luck. I worked for them for two years. Major dead-end job. All lift and TDR certified. I was actually a forklift trainer there too. Had to take LOA for an injury and they would not let me get my certifications back when I returned because my AM was a major douchebag, snot-nose college punk. I had more lift truck and warehouse experience than he had years on this earth.

I would have pm'd you so it didn't clutter up the thread but since this is a pic heavy kind of a thread others may benefit from it...

Assuming you are trying to post from your phone, both android and apple will let you edit pics. Crop the pic by at least 75%, save and load that one.

like this... it won't look like this when you're done, this is a shot of what it looks like when cropping the pic.

Or save your pic to a free hosting site like photobucket or tiny pic or whatever and then insert it by hitting the box (next to the smiley box) up there ^ that looks like a pic of mountains and a sun and past the link there.

Quicker to just crop and post straight from your phones pics though.

Vespas are cool, anything with 2 wheels is cool in their own way. Never rode anything with 2 wheels that didn't bring a smile to my face

@angus67
That Yamaha is super cool, what is that globe deal under the seat? A functional part?

Rock Hunter · Jan 3, 2015

gracias brother...
got 'em on a desktop, I'll give it the 'ol college try here shortly.

fq06 · Jan 3, 2015

Desktop you should be able to save it as a smaller size, been so long since I've used a desktop other than at work I forgot

Thats beautiful , thats the exact model i was planning on getting but i got a 25th Anniversary Mustang GT instead , recently sold that one , i shouldn't have .

No Ash More Cash · Jan 3, 2015

Just sold my 1946 BSA XM20...Don't know what I'm going to get next...Maybe a old Norton or triumph or If I could find one a 1950's vintage "Cafe racer" (A combo of both bikes Triumph engine and Norton Featherbed frame)

MKPM · Jan 3, 2015

Cant be bothered with taking a pic of my actual car...but it is identical to this one....perhaps not as clean presently...but still.

DougB · Jan 3, 2015

Here's a stock photo of my car. I bought it last January in Jacksonville, Florida and drove it home, here, to NJ. I put about 4,000 miles since. The Cayman S is a mid-engine car so the balance is really sweet. The handling never ceases to amaze me. It's a lot of fun to whip around...I have an older Mazda 6 that I drive as my daily driver and I love it just as much.

Scooby · Jan 3, 2015

Lookin good. My dads in the works of getting a 911 turbo for his toy even though I'm gonna be driving it more than he will because he'll probably just keep it in the garage and wax it daily lol.

DougB · Jan 3, 2015

Thank you... Any idea of what year he is looking at?...I hope you get to drive it often but be careful about that turbo spooling up!- If you don't already know all about it... My boss has a 930- a 1986 Turbo 911- that is unreal. The market for them is just ridiculous...Porsche makes incredible cars. I didn't get it until I drove one and now I love them.

My four wheeler is a 2012 Ford Focus Titanium. Nothing special.

The gold round thing under the seat has fuse block, ign module, and tool kit.
@noash, these yamahas are cheap, huge after market for them. engine is similar to the triumph. but is ohc. give them a look.

lol, I'd be lying if I said I never thought of leaving.
Been there since Dec 2010, so just passed my 5th peak season. First two were as an order picker and I couldn't take it any more. I made rate no problems, but my feet and knees couldn't take the running around any more. Transferred to inbound stow then after 3 months became permanent transship inbound dock crew, which was pretty new at the time for the building. Been asked a few times about becoming a forklift trainer, but teaching is just not something I feel comfortable doing.

Peak!!!! Ugh!!! Wonder if your fulfillment center has the parking nightmare that ours does. They have local police and security directing traffic. Getting in to the parking lot was as stressful as the damn job. LOL

zaroba · Jan 4, 2015

oh yes. police at the street and nearby intersection and Flagger Force (a traffic flagging company) in the lot directing traffic.
Honestly though, I'm always in early and out late so didn't have to suffer much from it.

BloodyJuiceBox · Jan 5, 2015

I'm driving a 2012 Ford Fusion AWD V6 3.0. Absolutely love my car. This is the first year I've gotten to take it out in the snow and it handled like a charm.

Right now he's looking at a 2013 and I know what you mean lmfaoo my car is pretty fast as well. I posted a pic of it up there a little bit. And he should have no problem letting me drive it. When I first got my license he let me take out his M6 all the time. He Recently test drove a new gtr but said that the inside felt to stiff and cheap looking.

I was looking at a snow mobile since I just moved to Maine and theres a long trail right by my house but I'm leaning towards a jet ski instead.. I feel like I'll get much more use out of it.. snow can be hit or miss.. summer is always at least a few months lol.

nice beemer btw.. loving the white on black rims .. I need to get mine tinted ASAP..

Lucky you , ahh the thing we call romance lol. Just make sure she's worth it , thats the key , if she is you will be A OK my friend .

Problem is that a ton of people stay in relationships they know is not right and will not lead to happiness in the end , while they may really care for the person they know in their heart they are not with the person they really want to be with in the long run.

They stay because they don't want to deal with the pain of it ending , this applies to marriages as well . What they don't realize is that all your doing is delaying the inevitable , at some time you will have to face that ending and it won't be any easier .

Best to get out as early as you can if you know it's really not right.

What about that rust on top of the front fender?
Or did somebody spill paint on it?

fq06 · Jan 5, 2015

That's a very expensive rat rod style paint job and a really good one to I might add. They really captured the realistic rust look.

russ81072 · Jan 5, 2015

Actually it is just surface rust,paint faded by sun, thats the way we got her, just shot some clear coat on it. I love the petina ratrod look.

russ81072 · Jan 5, 2015

55 years old and i think it looks good, even with the paint fade and surface rust.

so, why did you post a picture of a diesel, when you have a gas burner? A nice 07 hemi truck should trade in nicely for a diesel? I don't know much about that diesel world, but its just another modern hotrod. Go get you some!!
