I’ve been working at Enterprise for almost six months, and I never knew this was standard protocol. There were only two people in the office today, and they needed me to pick up a truck from the Willow Grove branch. My supervisor called for an Uber on his own account, which Enterprise will fully reimburse him for. The car that picked me up was this mint 2011 Lexus CT200h, which had 255K miles! This is the second CT200h I’ve ridden in (the first one was my friend Ryan’s, back in 2011), to date the only CT200h I’ve ever seen that DID NOT have a backup camera; I would 100% sell the PT Cruiser and buy this car for Amanda!

I previously saw this 20R-powered 1988 Suzuki Samurai at the Grounded For Life show in Bristol a little over a year ago. The owner was not present, and there was nothing to give me a clue as to the year, but it had a sign in the window this time around; I just love these Toyota-powered custom creations!

We've all heard of 3-on-the-tree, but this 1992 TownAce has 5-on-the-tree! Apparently, it also only capable of 62 MPH. I have driven a Mitsubishi Delica L300, which is extraordinarily similar to the TownAce. The example I drove had the 84hp turbodiesel 4-cylinder matched with what I presume was a 4-speed automatic transmission. I have never driven anything so underpowered, and it topped out at roughly 68MPH. I don't know if it was entirely due to the lack of power, the way the differential was geared, a governor, or a combination of some or all of those things. Regardless, having driven an underpowered JDM van, it doesn't shock me that this thing is only capable of going 62 MPH. Also regardless, the inability to hit the speed limit on the PA turnpike is outweighed by the overall cool factor!

2016 Lexus RC350; only the second one I've seen in this color, and the other one was three years ago and about 3,000 miles away! Also, the first one is a 2015, according to Carfax...

1987 MR2; I saw another MR2 at the Doylestown at Dusk show at least three years in a row, and mentioned to the owner that it was the only MR2 of this generation that I’d ever seen with power windows. Make this red one the second 1st Gen MR2 that I’ve seen with power windows! It’s rather worn out and the inspection sticker expired over a decade ago, so I’m guessing someone recently started driving it again after it sat for a while. It looks like it’s been sitting a while. Also, this car has a classic plate, which means that a safety inspection is required, but not emissions…

But still in excellent condition for a PA car!

My aunt and uncle used to have pretty much this exact RAV4, but a 2009 model with 4WD. This one is a 2007 FWD. It has low miles for the year (just shy of 144K), it’s in decent condition, and as an added bonus it has a Pioneer touch screen HU with a backup camera! If it was 4WD, I would pay maybe $6K. Since it’s 2WD, I wouldn’t want to pay more than five grand. On another note, this is a 4-banger, and this generation of RAV4 came with a 2.4L as standard that tended to suffer from excessive oil consumption as mileage rolls up. The 2007-2011 Camry has the same engine…
