Cool. You ever see those Pink Jeep Tours? They were in Sedona AZ some time back and you could spot those pink Jeeps a mile away. There were a lot of them in Sedona. We actually took one of their tours there and it was a good experience. [![](https://i.imgur.com/Ix9SzpV.jpg) ](https://i.imgur.com/Ix9SzpV.jpg) ---

My grandparents’ house in San Francisco was pink. It was one of those SF houses where they’re all side by side and touching each other. No side yards. Little pink houses for you and me… ---

Today, a BMW K1600B motorcycle. It has a transverse mounted straight 6 engine. That’s gotta be a really smooth engine!

Not sure of the year, but the car was definitely a Ford, and resembled the modified 1935 model seen on [this page.](https://www.hotrod.com/features/1207sr-1935-ford-coupe/#google_vignette) ---

I’m seeing green and blue as well, but that black one is pretty effin’ sharp. Also, I saw a VW ID Buzz (the EV microbus) a few days ago. ---

Check the license plate. Edit, I see they’re actually the same exact van. I thought you were pointing out another example. ---

I saw one of these in the wild while I was driving. Previously I’d only seen them in videos. I didn’t get a good look at it, but it is extremely distinctive. I’m not sure if it is a scooter, an e-bike, or a briefcase, there’s no “most interesting luggage” thread, so I’m posting it here. > **[Motocompacto | Honda](https://motocompacto.honda.com/)** > > Motocompacto Honda [![](https://motocompacto.honda.com/static/media/moto_fit_4.35878ec3521fe084579f.jpg) ](https://motocompacto.honda.com/static/media/moto_fit_4.35878ec3521fe084579f.jpg) ---

Today, in the parking lot of Sugar and Spice restaurant in Vermont, I saw a Cybertruck (my daughter called it a Deplorean). 45 seconds later, I saw a Rivian truck. Do these things travel in symbiotic packs like sharks and those fish that help groom them?
