Maximum Patina

Spotted this free spirit outside the local Best Buy. He achieved this interesting effect using sandpaper and a mix of readily available household chemicals. Note the Jackson Pollock-esque panel above the rear plate. And the “DTP!” on the trunk (no idea). Don’t know if I’m seeing more interesting vehicles these days or just noticing them more.

Land Rover vs. MINI

Keeping the MINI around for a bit until I’m confident the The Truck can be my daily drive. This photo shows just how small the Land Rover is. I’ll bet there’s more space inside the MINI. Longer wheelbase. But the center of gravity is very noticeable on turns. The contrast in driving experience is dramatic.
