I'm trying to find my pics from the mid 80's. Hope for the contestants that I don't find them. Nodody would stand a chance. Stories were even funnier then the looks of the truck. :P:P:P

Look harder we want to see them

This photo was taken by my passenger, so I may not qualify for the contest, but it was funny nonetheless. :lol:

We were filling up at the Pemex just north of the military camp near Guerro Negro, March 2004.

Echo

We took our Echo all the way to La Paz and Cabo 4 years ago. The kayaks are 16 ft, 3 ft longer then the car. We drove this rig to Cabo Pulmo and all over the east cape too. Had to have body work done on the roof above the doors when we got home.

Sorry, not personal pics. Didn't catch that rule until after the fact.

After my dress rehearsal yesterday packing the Subaru for 3 weeks camping- I think we may win this one. Four people + luxury camp gear = one overloaded car.

OK, let me in on this contest. I'll post my entry here that I already posted elsewhere, so I'm withing the rules:

Now I'm waiting for The Photo Master (Pompano) to come up with some killer pics.

JZ - 3-6-2006 at 06:09 PM

Damn, I wish I had my camera for one shot. We spotted a small pickup with like a thousand water melons in it. The bumper was about a foot off the ground! Amazing sight.

I took this photo in Baja Norte about two months ago. This guy was hauling the entire world(the load was so heavy it wore out his tires):lol::lol::lol:



Roberto - 4-2-2006 at 10:42 PM

That is a great and very creative shot, Cardon. :cool:

truck load

tehag - 4-15-2006 at 03:38 PM

Not as aesthetically pleasing as the typical Beverly Hillbillies load of furniture and bicycles but every bit as overdone. This semi load of steel rebar is topped with a fully loaded stake bed truck, and in front of that there is parked a nice yellow dump truck. Couldn't tell if the dump was full or not. Guy was doing 65 and I didn't try to pass for a side photo. Risky enough shooting through the windshield from behind. Dual plates, Cal and Baja C. Wonder if the CHP got a look at that one or if the load grew after the border.
