Reminds me of the old Greyhound buses that I spent many hours riding on.
Hopefully this isn't as noisy running down the road. _________________ One of these days I'm gonna settle down,

Hopefully as they say, a four wheel drive will just get you stuck further down the road. I think that’ll get the pink away from civilization.
Other than that i really like it. _________________ 1987 Syncro Westfalia Triple knob (bastard)

Sadly the Pepto Syncro was for sale in Germany on the Mobile.de website. I get most of my shame pics from there.
