Found while shopping...
I had to stop at the local Walmart for supplies - this was in the parking lot:

That truck is sweet! Love the bumper. what did they have between the fenders and trailer? In the second pic

Re: Found while shopping...
Very sharp truck, although if there was one thing I would change, it would be the visor! That thing needs to be polished, not painted.
dabears, I'm going to guess and say that polished shine you see between the trailer and truck fenders is just the trailer's landing gear brace. |
Re: Found while shopping...
What a great find! Very sharp truck. Great photos, what camera did you use? Great weather for photos, the blue sky sets off the red paintwork, it really pops in those light conditions.

Nathan, I like the red visor!

Re: Found while shopping...
Gonna be painting yours red now too? I'm really surprised at how clean that truck is. I don't see any bugs on it anywhere! I like when you come across working trucks like this. The owner takes a lot of pride in it, and keeps it spit shined!

I took the photos with an iPhone 4, just the regular 4 not the 4s. I too like the painted visor. I think the matching refer paint really sets the whole thing off. And you don't want to go making Santa mad - that 'power wheels' is his little red sleigh!!!

I thought it might be the iphone. It's the most popular "camera" on flickr!

Re: Found while shopping...
You would be suprised how big it is inside - Santa is not exactly a small man - this Santa requires no additional stuffing - he carries it all with him. These cars basically have no back seat, and although the seats are placed closer together - they are a full sized car inside - a ton of headroom, lots of leg room, just nothing in front of or behind you. Which will probably bring up the whole safety issue. Highest rating available.

Re: Found while shopping...
Now looking at the photos though I should have parked right in front of him and made my car the 'hood ornament' :)

Re: Found while shopping...
A leftover from MATS maybe?
|
Re: Found while shopping...
Maybe but that is a long time to hang around and I am a good ways outside Louisville.

Safe or not I just can't get this video out of my mind. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKSPxQjPOm0

Re: Found while shopping...
Those photos rock, for being taken with a phone.
What kind of gas mileage does that smart car get anyway? Is that why guys buy them? I can't imagine they do so hot on the interstate. But for running around town? |

Re: Found while shopping...
You should so fit a train horn to that smart car. Imagine the surprise when a noise that big comes from a car that compact!

Train horns have been done: http://www.smartcarofamerica.com/for...n-horns-41682/ - scroll down a bit for the video of his actual car and all the horns he has installed on it.
For mileage, I am tracking my mileage on Fuelly. I average just under 40 MPG - with a high of 44 and a low of 35 when I take it in for service. I think the service guys drive faster than I do :) http://mefi.us/images/fuelly/sig-us/106030.png Click on the banner for current and past fuel consumption information.
