2022 – The 30 Screwed-up Vehicles of April
(Ignore April 30, 2017 publish date – this was published on May 17, 2022
You’d heard of The Ides of March? These are The Odds of April (and click most of them to enlarge).
On the day after April Fool’s Day, I leaned out of my living room window and took probably the weirdest shot ever of a yellow Mustang. I didn’t know he was going to park, but stayed with it just to see what resulted.
The front end looks odd because I was using the PANO left-to-right motion and I couldn’t turn the camera to follow the car’s motion because that would have also turned the parking lot under it.
So – to make up for the strange look of the front end – I took/inserted a regular picture of the car after it was parked.
APRIL 4
When was the last time you saw a 34-wheeler school bus?
APRIL 5
Standin’ on the corner, watchin’ all the ? go by………..
APRIL 8
This time, I’m on the corner by Sears (two blocks from home) and busy shooting something else that had long time gaps of nothing, so I did this while I was waiting around. Good use of my time, I’d say.
APRIL 11
These were taken in four different locations.
1. Panning right to left for the bus on Main St means that any car going in the opposite direction gets scrunched:
2,3. Shown are two very different vehicles – and directions – on State St. In the second one, you can see my apartment on the far right (top floor with living room picture window):
4. I think the car’s color makes this picture:
APRIL 16
The long and short of it near famous White Manna Hamburgers on River St (about 4 blocks from home):
Whaddaya mean you never heard of White Manna? Just ask Guy Fieri:

About a block away, I found this guy with his 30-wheeler (or thereabouts) scooter:
From the same corner, I shot this strange vehicle with some creepy-looking triplets checking me out:
APRIL 22
Stanley Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemer on Main St:
Crazy trucks on River St:
You want crazy? This truck’s about to plow right into itself:
This guy just pulled out of a parking lot:
I’m guessing this was a flatbed tow truck…………whatever it is, it looks cool (and if you look closely in the upper left, you can see White Manna’s signs):
This is all one picture, but it looks like Hackensack Parking Enforcement is chasing a much-longer version of itself:
APRIL 27
When one flag (far right) becomes 26:
APRIL 30
Four more from the same corner:
SELFIE-SIGNOUT:
I’m not into selfies, but it’s not every day that you get to take them right on Main St as a parade of ridiculously-long vehicles passes behind you (that has to be a first):
(taken on April 24)
There’ll be an interesting twist (he says confidently) in the next bunch.
These were fun!
So cool!!!
