    Pics or it didn't happen.

    In college, I lived across the hall from a guy who drove an old Dodge Omni or some similar hatchback. It was grey with a red stripe poorly painted down the side. I saw that car for a couple years before someone informed me it was supposed to be an X-Wing. . . Apparently the dude had grand plans to add an R2 Dome on top and such, but never got around to it.

    Ah, the 90's, an age when the mini-van was king...here are a few random pics to celebrate.

    'Shuttle' Van 1
    'Shuttle' Van 2
    'Shuttle' Van 3

    In HS I drove a blue Dodge Caravan with wood grain paneling, those were the days...

    Hmmm, for the Smart Car, wouldn't the Type 15 Shuttlepod be closer?

    If you have a death wish, buy a smart car. Those things wouldn't survice much of an impact, let along a serious accident. However, it will crumple to the point where it would be like being buried inside of a soup can.

    Indeed. Every time I see a 'Smart Car' next to an 18-wheeler, I gasp.

    I do the same thing when I see a Smart Car next to a shopping cart. :p

    I definitely saw two shuttle vans today. The USS Yeager and the USS Code Talker.

    I wish I could say that "That's awesome!"

    But for whatever reason, all I want to do is cry in the corner for how... embarrassing that is. :eek: :(

    But, sadly, there are Zombies a mist! /e holster_Zombie Split Beam Rifle Mk XVI [Necro] [Rules]
