4Runner photo game

I went to get one today. In Knoxville, we have a Rush Limbaugh Ln. I thought that was kind of funny (though not surprising for East Tennessee). However, when I got there the sign had been changed to Limbaugh Lane. So I passed.

That’s still pretty weird, in Google maps it’s identified as Rush Limbaugh Ln. I wonder if someone complained about the sign.

A little late...

Got a flag pic just by accident on Memorial Day with my new (to me) Runner.

Next Challenge: Your truck at a street sign with a humorous or weird name.
Such as “Tubby Street” in Campbell CA.
Sorry that I couldn't get to Fountain to get a shot of the "A Dog Will Lick His Butt..." sign. I did, however, swing by a couple of local roads that I've always thought had humorous names.

Sorry also that I was driving the Wrangler today and not the 4Runner; but in the interest of keeping the game moving...

The first is Jackass Hill Road. Unfortunately, the only place where there's actually a street sign for it is at a busy intersection. So I had to take the picture from inside while waiting for the light.

The other is Yank Place. Not sure why I find this street name to be humorous, but I do. :)

I'll leave the challenge the same to see if someone can come up with something better, and with their 4Runner.

Thanks for keeping it the same Paul, you saved me from (again) getting bruced twice in the same day on my motorcycle game.

Next Challenge: Your truck at a street sign with a humorous or weird name. .


Well I just got back from getting my interpretation of the challenge. I couldn't find a "humorous" street around here (and I looked at a shitload of maps, there is even an online resource that gives you every street alphabetically in a community and I checked every community in the county against it and couldn't really find anything...)

So I went for this. Individually they are not significant, but put together, it's a true statement. McDonald's is effing Gross!

Also this is my 4Runner's mirror. Well, actually, it is a Subaru base model mirror but it's in my 4Runner (because I hate the auto-dimming contraption).

Next up, your machine with a sign promoting you to slow down or drive safely or some version of that. I'm not looking for a speed limit sign, or a "curve" arrow... rather a neighborhood installed, folksy kind of warning that you are driving like an *******. I would accept those 3 foot tall neon plastic kids waving flags, too. Like this, from my 'hood:

We have a neighbor that routinely puts one of those out so their kids can play in the street. :der: I won't post a photo of that though - it would be too easy. Although, I could get the whole fleet in the picture if I did. :D

OK, I couldn't resist. Here's a shot looking through our fleet of 4x4 vehicles at the flag-waving neon plastic kid that the people across the street put up when their non-neon kids play in the street.

Since all I had to do was back the cars out of the garage to get this shot, and to give someone a chance to post a better sign, I'll leave the challenge the same, except that neon plastic kids waving flags are no longer allowed.

I have a neighbor who’s had a “Drive Like Your Kids Live Here” sign by the street for YEARS. Yesterday it was gone. Maybe the kids grew up and left the nest.
Gotta keep looking.

Since you met the original challenge and no one else has done it again, just issue a new challenge. I haven't seen any of those signs anywhere this week.
 
Ha! I found one of those damn “Drive Like Your Kids Live Here” signs. I’m gonna claim it.

New Challenge:
Your truck and an inappropriately located portapotty.
Homeowners usually have one for contractors to use when they do remodeling work on a house. But this one has been on this curb for over 5 months and I haven’t seen any evidence of work being done. Maybe it’s for their houseguests.

I'm on this, I found one at work yesterday; I will drive the 4R in tonight to get it before my overnight shift...

unless someone else beats me to it...

Not sure what the point of this port-a-potty is. It is in the back corner of a parking lot at the human services / welfare office. You could argue that it is there for the clients, but there are numerous fully functional bathrooms inside the building. You also get a bonus shot of a homeless guy building random rock cairns.

Gratuitous fresh winch installation and porta-potty shot! :biggrin1:

Something with moss you say? We went to look at a house and property today... it was in the middle of several farms and way back in the woods. There just happened to be these moss-covered railroad ties where I parked.

Next challenge: Your ride in the middle of a beautiful field or grassland, scrub or whatever. It can be on a road or trail... tread lightly.
