Reliant Scimitar 4x4, 1972. An experimental version of the Ogle designed shooting brake using Ferguson Formula 4 wheel drive technology. The original Scimitar GTE chassis was re-designed with revised engine & gearbox mountings to get drive to front diff past the Ford 3 litre V6 while moving steering rack to clear GKN front Diff Unit. The 4 wheel drive Scimitar was an experimental model and never really intended for series production, it has passed through the hands of various collector and was, for a time, part of the Jaguar/Land Rover Collection

“I don’t want to do this.”
“C’mon, you know weddings are fun! You’ll be fine.”
“It’s not the actual shindig that’s the issue; it’s the traveling four states over to get there. That drive is gonna take me like, twelve hours. Be glad you’re a borrower and don’t have to travel for cousins’ weddings.”
“Dude, you’re joking, right? Last year my brother had a destination wedding, two blocks down the street at that house with the big birdbath. It took me three weeks to travel there. I had to fight a CHIPMUNK.”
“Goddamn.”
“I wish I could have drove. The birdbath pool party reception ruled, though.”
“Oh, nice. Open bar?”
“Tinies don’t do that. It was Open Bottle. One open bottle of rum, and we were thriving.”
“Fuck yeah.”
#g/t#giant tiny#theres like three different punchlines i could have ended it on here but i just kept going#im going to a wedding this weekend which will be fun. BUT THE DRIVE 😭#a nurse testing me for vertigo told me i have the worst case of motion sickness she ever saw#and she worked there for like. thirty years.#me and long car rides do NOT mix#alcohol mention#tw alcohol mention#its going to be an extremely religious wedding too. my cousins follow a v rigid denomination#which i dont judge like believe what u want! but they are super traditional#im gonna walk in with my green hair and cunty dress and the inlaws r gonna throw rocks at me 😭#my mom asked me to wear leggings and a jacket to ‘avoid a family fight’#which if it was just ME affected then i wouldnt care. but i dont want my aunt to give my mom shit :/#anyways im bringing my weed pen so itll be okay 💖

which touhou character would drive a toyota
ran yakumo 2003 toyota sienna road rage incident
#touhou#2023#this is a serious answer i think yeah either the yakumos (ran driving specifically bc yukari ismt trusted to drive) or the moriyas#if you think about it they have the closest access to cars i assume and also the knowledge to drive one#sanae only has her permit she keeps failing the test#also these cars are a toyota sienna and i think a toyota prius#the former of which my mom and everyone elses moms all drove from like 2003-2012 lmao#anyway what a hilarious ask lmao this sounds like it would come from my brother

I just want Fernando to set the Aston garage on fire and walk away carrying Lance bridle style while a cool explosion happens behind them.
#lance had himself a banger of a drive and he could only get p11#and fernando’s cars just can’t seem to fucking work properly in mexico#this team is truly testing my patience#strollonso#my ramblings

I understand why most people don't know these things but I do feel like it should be standard to teach everyone, no matter where they live, the basics of how to drive in snowy/icy conditions
#just saw a video of a car needing to be rescued off train tracks because they got stuck in like. all of 4 inches of snow#and I'm just wondering like... yes where I live is in perpetual drought but we do get SOME#*SOME snow#but there's absolutely nothing on the drivers' test about driving in winter roads#the only reason I know how to is because I grew up in Alaska and my mom explained stuff to me#this should be a basic piece of knowledge people have??#you should not be getting stuck on a paved road with 2-4 inches of snow. truly#People need to be taught better

Went driving with my dad and apparently he was disappointed in my speed (the speed limit) cause we watched a bunch of F1 and now he’s taking me go karting so I can practice racing???????
Forget literally everything I’ve ever said about this guy I take it all back he’s officially cool
#The only rule is that I have to go full send#He wants me to “test the physical capabilities of a car”#And see how fast I can go before skidding out of control or flipping a turn lmao#Basically he wants me to go as fast as I possibly can and then crash so I learn how to drive a car better (faster)

absolutely wild to me that american driving tests are only FIFTEEN MINUTES LONG. is that the same in every state?? is it true that the test is taken entirely in a car park/parking lot rather than on actual roads, or does that also vary by state? im absolutely fascinated by this.
#should probably have waited to post this until those of you who are across the pond actually wake up but i MUST KNOW#i do remember seeing scenes in movies where people would be driving a car around a car park with traffic cones set up#but i didnt realize that was the ACTUAL TEST
