| Jeep
Wrangler Unlimited |
|
Thinking
about a vehicle that can tackle
the rugged dirt roads here
in Southern Arizona? Jeep is
the obvious choice. And when
it comes to Jeep in Southern
Arizona, Greg is the guy to
talk to. He owns a Jeep and
drives it off road, not just
to work. Oh yea, he sells them
too. Here are some pictures
of a trip we took in this new
four-door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

|
|
Unlike
the previous Wrangler Unlimited,
a stretched version of the
standard two-door, the 2007
Wrangler Unlimited uses a 20.6-inch-longer
wheelbase to make room for
full-size rear doors. It's
5.5 inches wider than previous
Wranglers, same as the standard
two-door Wrangler models.

We saw this Jeep and trailer
on the side of the road one day
in early November 2007

|
|
The old Jeep trailer was in
good shape, something you don't
see very often

Caminos around Tucson, Arizona |

Pics
of some of the El Caminos seen
around Tucson this month. All
were white,and each was from
a different era, a good month
for El Caminos in Tucson. One
was a super cool late third
Gen, one was another nice Second
Gen and the last was a quick
view of a Fifth Gen El Camino

|
|
Saw this one in traffic, we
just had a glimpse of this nice
Second generation El Camino driving
around in Tucson. Side

| Traffic
Camera Van in Tucson |
|
The Tucson
Police have a new photo enforcement
van. Here are a few pics we
took when it was in our neighborhood
and driving around town.

|
|
It looks like a white van with
some extra lights on it, except
it's painted with the TPD Photo
Force logo

|
| Some
bumper stickers seen around town |
|
Some people like to express
themselves with colorful plastic
sheets stuck to the back of their
cars, here's a good example


|
| Examples
of the US flag displayed incorrectly |
|
Many
people display the US flag in violation
of the US flag code without intending
to

|
|
Ironically displaying an improper
flag in an improper fashion to
support the country and show
patriotism..

| Tour
de Tucson 2007 |
|
This
years Tour de Tucson was the
largest yet. We visited the
66 an 81 Mile Starting lines.
Here are some pictures of this
years event

|
|
Riders swarmed the area getting
to the starting line. Their cars
clogged most of the surrounding parking lots. police were set up to
direct traffic and keep things moving

Commuters in Tucson get to see
some interesting things in the

|
| Nice
looking van |
|
Saw this nice looking van in
a parking lot in east Tucson

|
|
This van looks like it could
go just about anywhere

|
| Gas
prices on the rise |
|
Even though it's reported that
Tucson has the lowest gas prices
in the country, prices are still
on the rise

|
|
Almost $3 per gallon at the
end of the month

|
| Recumbent Bikes |
|
We see these a lot around town

|
|
Maybe more were out to practice
for the big Tour
de Tucson event,
or because the weather has been
good. Keep your eyes open, share
the road and drive safely

|
| Misc
pics |
|
Here was an obvious surveillance
van set up along side a road,
attempting to look like a simple
van for sale.. sloppy camouflage
at best

An older camper on a newer truck.
It might look odd but this would
be a great vehicle for camping,
hunting or just about anything
outdoors where you want to get
to a remote area an bring a few
comforts as well
