that's a really nice pickup

I love them as well as the other models

the pickup is a lovely colour and the pictures look good

what happens with those :confused: things on the bonnet
do they slide in and down when driving ?
:shock:
and I love art
especially the unexpected sort,
very good
it's like a special trophy with an added dimension
(the photographer's indelible 'features' there forever)
:lol: :lol: :lol:

crawling away , like I didn't ask the question about those 'things'

:lol: :lol: :lol:

:shock:

just passed a huge shiny Chevy pick up truck on the road here
near the house :shock:

New Jersey on the licence plate :shock:

I mean, how did it fly over :shock:
:shock: beautiful sight to see on a cold wet windy dark evening

massive and chunky, drove into a housing estate
(my wide open eyes (and mouth) :lol: followed it until it went out of sight)

:cool:

Love the "Arty" pic. Good shadows without loss of detail and not too many hot spots which is always a problem with chrome.

I always struggle when I am in a parking lot car show with the background (like the Caddy and the caution tape in the first picture) and I end up shooting a bunch of artsy pictures instead. My friends joke that I should by a wide angle lens...

The two "cuisinarts"?

Did it sound good, Marie?

I'd guess around 10mpg. That Malibu was a top rated car in a recent TV special. How much does he want for it?

By the way, where at in S.E. Michigan?

Troy. I've been, but don't care much for the shows. Terrible lighting, downtown parking, crowds... Have you seen this thread? Detroit Auto Show anyone?

Thank's for the comments, everyone!

so good it had to be from the U.S Frank
:lol:

thought it a coincidence especially as you had just shown the pick up here
this one was bigger , as far as I could tell

it must have cost a fortune to get it over

if I see it again I will stop it and ask whoever....are they living here :confused:

but not before I get a shot of (or at) it
:lol:

He's probably spending a fortune on gas for it, too.

Track him down, Marie!
