I find it fun to see what others have riding on their dash , from Hula Girls, to eagle feathers. Lets see yours.

I have a bobble-head version of my beloved dog Lilly, who died at Thanksgiving 2 years ago. But she's still with me wherever I go.

Two "Toy Boarders" skateboarders and a plastic Wombat from a previous trip to Oz. The Wombat rode the dash in our Aussie rental car and when we were not sure which way to go, he would point the way for us. He kind of became our "totem" after that. The skateboarders were there to help us on our road trip from Atlanta to LA for the Mighty Mama Skate-o-Rama last spring. There are another couple of dozen figures along the front of the dash. (That is mid-May sleet on the windshield in Ruidoso, NM)

Vanny's secret code name is "The 'Possum"... She's a "sleeper"..
Well, Possie..that's right, the Opossum has a name , too. And everything has to end in an "eee" because my wife names everything..I go with it so she will become ever more endeared to a 35 year old vehicle with no air conditioning .
Possie likes to ride with her head hanging out the driver side vent window so drivers in a hurry to pass can get a good look at her..they smile and forget how long it has taken them to get around us and how slow I was going up the hill in 3rd gear..hopefully their trip will be a better one.
Possie also likes to hang around in middle of the poptop lift bar.
The motion always gets a grin...from me ...when I glance up at the mirror.
Oh, DANG, I forgot super- secret- double- ought code name is supposed to be a secret..😳 _________________ Currently:1980 Westy Westfalia Poptop (a total stock-look rebuild with all my favorite camping mods)
