That truck isn’t just sick, it’s terminally ill.

I have always wanted to go visit original, or Classic York.

PrinceFidget ,

Vanilla York

Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the UK, great place for a spot of Afternoon Tea.

Klear ,

It used to be called Amsterdam.

Huh, we meet again, the worst thing I’m going to see today.

When you learn that Mexicans named New Mexico…

OsrsNeedsF2P ,

Darn immigrants ruining my good country!

Yes, US annexed New Mexico and Texas, which originally belonged to Mexico.

Spur4383 ,

And California…

AngryCommieKender ,

Kind of. The Spanish named New Mexico in the 1600s, and it was a much larger territory than the current state. The Mexicans named Mexico in 1821 when they gained their independence from Spain, and they acquired New Mexico as well. Then the US annexed it in the late 1800s.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Mexico

AngryCommieKender ,

Spaniards named New Mexico a couple centuries before Mexico existed.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Mexico

s_s ,

The Mexica existed long before the Spanish arrived. They migrated to the Valley of Mexico from a land in the north they referred to as Aztlán when the Toltecs went into decline.

Nuevo Mexico was named by the Spanish in reference to this history, as they were following the Rio Grande north searching for the Cities of Gold referenced in these same Mexica (ie Aztec) legends.

I think Virginia is the worst of the lot, as it was named after Elizabeth the first; the virgin queen.

TwinTusks ,

Its so shameful that Elizabeth I would stole Virginia from Virginia.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

(definitely wasn’t a virgin)

Siegfried , in How could we have let this happen?

Worst of all is georgia, disgusting!

k2helix ,

why? (not from the US)

xbhaktapur ,
@xbhaktapur@lemmy.world avatar

Because there’s an entire country named Georgia 🇬🇪

HortiEastwood ,

And they stole it from the state of Georgia, USA.

k2helix ,

Oh I didn’t think about it and the US state having the same name but now I imagine why OP said it 😂

threelonmusketeers , (edited )

not from the US

Because there’s a US state named Georgia.

k2helix ,

yup I knew that (isn’t it where Macon and Atlanta are?) but I didn’t realise that it and the country have the same name. Thanks anyway!

AngryCommieKender ,

It is where Macon and Atlanta are, and the name Sherman is still hated down there.

Better than being told you should be a school guidance councilor.

Well then you can find out who guides the guidance counselors

TheFerrango ,

That’s how they reproduce, by misguiding others

Isn’t that just what they say if they like you?

polarbear236 , in Yo brother sick car yo!

It’s a little weird to think my truck is very nearly as old as I am

cyborganism ,

It’s too bad that car manufacturers stopped making small pickup trucks.

Blamemeta ,

Blame the epa and badly written laws.

galloog1 ,

I don’t think it was badly written for the time but it’s definitely been gamed to the point where pickup trucks need to be part of emissions standards instead of exempt.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Or I can blame the people actually doing it, as well as actively trying to murder the EPA on a daily basis.

polarbear236 ,

The newer rangers are alright, though definitely bigger than they used to be. My ‘01 just keeps limpin along though, sucker won’t quit

this_1_is_mine ,

no the new rangers suck they deserved a better design. its ass is too tall stuff dissapears behind it. the engines are too high strung little hot boxs. the interiors are cheap in the wrong way and look nice but will all go the way of the ranger center console lid… ripped torn and smashed. though the aluminum body soumds fun till its a drill welds and replace the whole panel moment. i never get wleded panels back do you …they always rivet them back together for me.

Captainvaqina ,

How many aluminum body panels have you gone through?

this_1_is_mine ,

on work and personal 8 in total all on f250s though with 6.0ls in the last 3 years. normally somone backs into something. like a light pole or construction dumpster …btw generally any damage to bed panels and its easier to replace the panel then fix it.

Blame CAFE laws. It’s almost impossible for auto makers to sell small LUVs in the US without pricing them higher than most large trucks.

bdonvr ,

Hyundai Santa Cruz is decent but yeah

cyborganism ,

I’m thinking more like the old Mazda B-Series.

Hubi ,

Both of my cars are older than me. And at least one is in better shape than I am.

That weekénd accent mark is chef kiss. Gives the perfect emphasis to make sure you know it’s a strong French accent. At least, I’m pretty sure German would have spelled everything zie rather than ze.
