Character Development Better Than A Twilight Movie: COTD

Life is a fascinating thing to watch unfold. The person you are today may not be who you are tomorrow or even a decade from now. You never know where life will take you, and that’s great! Our David Tracy is a great example of this. It wasn’t even two years ago when David had piles of car parts under a tree, tools frozen under Detroit snow, and milk in his refrigerator that was so old it phase separated. Before that, David was a man who wrecked cars in his backyard and wrenched his heart out to get hopeless Jeeps to Moab.

Nowadays, David is a cleaned-up man. He’s no longer surrounded by rust holes and his spaghetti is consumed on a table rather than in a shower. David is a guy who is selling off Jeeps and keeping modern electric cars. David is a guy who no longer cares for a hoard of Jeeps keeping a city inspector up at night. I bet you didn’t see this coming! Patches O’ Houlihan says it well:

When I signed up for my membership on this site I was not expecting such character development.

10/10 would subscribe again.

Rob Schneider (are we talking about that Rob Schneider?) is cutting some onions:

Old David, we’ll miss you. But I think there’s a caterpillar-to-butterfly metaphor here, and I’m very much looking forward to the next phase of your glorious life. Thank you for sharing it with us!

This morning, we got all hot and bothered in the Autopian Slack channel about some fire engines for sale with funny names on them. Thomas then wrote about them and I’m happy to see our readers have great senses of humor.

Data:

So there is all this talk about pumping and that one truck has Intercourse written across the front. This is thirsty Autopian.

Sid Bridge:

As nice as that Intercourse truck looks, I’m told it’s squirted on half the town.

My memories of having a 1989 F350 with the non-turbo IDI-

1. It’s loud as fuck.
2. It accelerates at the same leisurely pace no matter how much weight you put in it.
3. The engine is so goddamn massive that the cab shakes like a wet dog when you turn it off.
4. It will run until the heat death of the universe.

Have a great evening, everyone!
