Wait and who gets a truck with no trailer hitch?

Enterprise? I told them I'd take whatever they had available...

It was an option you had to add to every trim line when I ordered my truck. think about 1200 bucks if you got the full trailer pack but that included the big dumbo ear no retract and no dimming mirrors. Mine was 400 bucks for a welded hitch vs the buy from the dealer bolt in at 250 plus their labor.

Not sure this is in the spirit of the thread as these weren’t really spotted out in the wild as it were. This was at a cars and coffee event this morning. But if you can post pictures of your rental car

Some European stuff to start. Including ones with little engines right at the back.

The Opel GT is a car I see a lot. It lives a few miles from me. And it’s for sale. $12k. Tempting.

[Adam43]

Now some American stuff. Not all V8s!

Aren’t Mustangs common

[Adam43]

Some Japanese stuff.

Virginia home of the private license plate.

Some trucks and a comparison of two vette engines.

The Ford has a Jag rear suspension.

One has had a transplant! Much later engine in there.

[Adam43]

Disappointingly there are no cranes on show.

That looks like it was a nice little show? Was it an organized event or did people just show up to shop with their toys?

Organised. They even have T-Shirts now. Apparently it was the one year anniversary. Came from a discussion after a few beers one night - “we should do a cars and coffee”.

I’ve only been a couple of times, but looks like quite a few are regulars. Normally there are more MX5s.

Still we go, it is nice coffee. And back home by 9! The day remains. Which reminds me I really ought to get on with stuff.

I feel that's the way most car shows and likely races started, the less successful started with hold my beer. Spectacular but short-lived

Bout to take one of my work boats in to get a new trailer. But just wanted to post a pic of my Ram after Field did.

Yes, but it is my sidewalk! And better that than letting some distracted driver hit it!

She's a beaut.

Not as pretty as these. If you're ever near Warrenton, GA, which you never will be, swing through downtown and check these two out ( think there was an old Saab out back too, behind the covered car ).

The custom had a Caddy steering wheel so assume that was the baseline....

Those are sweet! Are they daily drivers, or do they just look pretty?

Dust coverage tells me that it's been likely months and possibly years since they've moved.

I'll have to rely on others to id the car, did have rear quarter R/T badges, caught it with my dash mount camera so picture sucks. But on the road I'm Midtown Atlanta and sounded good

Pretty sure that's a Barracuda. Similar to Frieburger's first.

Correction. It's some sort of Super Bee / Road Runner / RT. I need JHammy to chime in:

Whatever it is, it isn't as sweet as its GM stablemate

Sweet!! I've had this one in the holster, waiting for the right moment. Seems like the correct time....

What’s the feeling?

That can't be a Beemer, there's FAR too much space around it. Maybe it's the new 1/2 series

This drove by the house this evening taking out the trash. Kid driving it made me sad, my truck in high school was NOT that nice.
