This was a kind of Taxi Stand in the Philippines. I am about to go for a ride in one of these Jeepneys. They are surplus WWII Jeeps converted for public transportation.

Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder... that thing is advertised to get 80-100 mpg... if they ever make it.

I guess as I grow older I am becoming more of "form follows function" guy.

Lord knows over the years I have had plenty of beautiful/impractical vehicles.

Now I'm more interested in what a car can DO than what it looks like.

YMMV
