On road sighting
I know these threads have existed on here before but I couldn't help but post what I saw today while heading home from work....
a late 90's model Ford Ranger with a dually conversion... complete with fender flares that had seen better days...

there's a guy around here, who took a dual axle car hauler trailer, and grafted it onto a chevy truck, late 90's vintage. it has some kind of fwd v8 engine in it. The rear axles are straight trailer axles.
looks weird with no d/s or pumpkin in the rear.

anyone ever seen a ford metropolitan (i think thats the name, it was a mid 80's early 90's f150-f250maybe crew cab pickup with a bronco style back end a conversion of course) ive seen a 3 they look a lil odd. If someone with to much money were to put a "600" cummins in it with a g56, that would be interesting.....

nothing tops the nitwit up the road from my folks, he has a late 80's ranger, standard ccramp/ cab... might be 4 wheel motivated....... well the back is tubbed for duals ( garage job ) but he's only runninstock tires, from the looks of them they are factory original. It gets better, see there is a bicycle shop nearby...... this guy has about a hundred reflectors all up and down the sides of the "truck" sure looks like a ____________ well you can finish the sentance.
