2026 Eggemoggin Reach Regatta. Brooklin Maine

 


c. 1982 Toyota Hilux and c 1996 Ford Rangers & c. 2024 Toyota Tacoma. Los Angeles. (Mar Vista)


 Trucks have strayed too far from 'truck' as in useful. We await the Slate. We have posted several Hilux, including this 1973 Toyota Hilux and we are very fond of Ford Rangers. Wheelbarrows all.


And this (below) was the most basic Toyota Tacoma we'd seen in a while.

c.1968 Ford Falcon. Brooklyn, New York.

 



From the poet Eva H.D., in Brooklyn: 

             They don’t make 'em like that anymore, I said to the cute young guy, white undershirt, rag in hand.
             No they do not.
            Everyone takin' a picture of that car today, said the older man on the stoop.
