    I saw a new Bronco 4-door in the wild yesterday. It was a base model with mfg tags. Didn’t love the look of the base model so it will be interesting to see the higher end models next year.

    I'll take the old Chevy truck in the first post over anything else shown. Beautiful truck.

    A must see  for any car lover is the Muscle Car Museum if anyone gets to the Central FL area. One guy's personal collection that he turned into a museum to support non-profits. Something like $35+ million dollars worth of cars and growing. 4 or 5 Hellcats, 4 or 5 demons and the amazing GT collection in the front room around an original Shelby. The rest of the cars are through those doors in a huge showroom.





     

    Big Green Egg dealer in Melbourne, Fl just down the street from that Museum held a fund raiser there my Eggin' friend attended. He is a Mustang and Corvette owner and fan and was blown away by the size of the collection. I had tickets but could not attend. May get a chance in the non Covid future if the dealer holds another fund raiser as that is the only way you can gain entrance,

  • Wassi's is a good place. I didn't know they had a fundraiser there or I would have gone for sure! I've been twice and each time there were more cars added.

    JustBuggin - They have been supporting Candlelighters of Brevard for as long as I've known them. They provided the food at their last fundraiser held at the museum.

  • That vehicle with the built in egg is nice until you want to do a brisket.  For that you need the Instant-Pot vehicle.

    NOT exotic AT ALL! But still love my '95 Mercedes I bought brand new and here 25 years later I still only have 65K on the odometer. Besides that at only 65K it's a diesel which means it is a "puppy" and will run until my executor sells it!

    Hang on - did you photoshop that?   I see no black spots on the concrete under the front end of that MG.   Unless all the oil already dropped out?
    MG / Triumph / BL - kept the oil industry in profit until the 90's! 

    That aside - nice colour, don't see many in blue.

    My theory is that there is some oil left but these pics were taken as it rolled downhill because the parking brake failed.  This keeps the oil drips from concentrating on the clean driveway.

    Warm beer and Lucas is fine,  it's when the conversation about cam profiles & durations clicks in to the second hour that I get a bit twitchy.

    It happened so fast there was no time for a picture, but this year I saw the nicest, rarest car in the wild than previous.  A Porsche 918 turned left in front of me.  Pretty cool because it was the same color as the lego version I have.

    Most expensive car was at a car show a couple years ago and saw a Bugatti Chiron.  I was even lucky enough to hear it do a cold start

    Not a recent sighting at all. Saw it at a British car show at the Larz Anderson Auto Museum in Brookline Mass some years ago. A beautifully restored 1960 Triumph TR3 that belonged to Jay Leno's brother, Pat. Super nice guy. Pat has since passed away and Jay now owns the car. Featured on Jay Leno's Garage a while back.

    Anyway, if we have any TR fans out there, thought you might appreciate...

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    @Battleborn: You should make a case for one of these!

    Any department that does something like that should be defunded. We get our a$$ handed to us if we scratch our 2010 explorers with a 150k, duct taped interior and spotlights held on with zip ties. I can only imagine what would happen if I even looked at that thing.
