The Mullet of the automotive industry

Ah, the Ranchero. I happened upon this beauty while vacationing up north this summer. We were parked (yes parked) at the Tim Horton's on the main drag and this fellow was waiting at the drive-thru. I love these cars. I sometime see a fellow here in T.O. driving in black El Dorado.... another fine specimen. When it is time to trade-in the mini van, I just may get one of these. I can be guaranteed that the Princess won't be stealing the keys to my car and going out joy riding.

The Tim's in Bancroft was quite a show. We were trying to get on the road to return home and thought we would stop in for a quick java and some bits for the kids. Everyone wanted the drive-thru, but I went on a tirade about how lazy society is becoming when we can't even get out of our friggin' vehicles to get a hot beverage. Well, the line-up was outside the door and poor Doug had to wait more than a half-hour for our stuff while the kids melted in the cars. I spent my time counting pick-up trucks....... I love small towns.
