"Mercedes Streeter" (smart)

The Ranger saw its r adius a rm replaced today. It’s now more of a centrist as it drives perfectly straight. lol
From here it’ll need some tires, a power steering pump (I can do that myself), my roof rack installed, a Subaru style bed seat
, and some theming! My girlfriend is taking care of the "keep us happy/alive" stuff like sleeping arrangements and all that.
This will be the most I’ve spent in Gambler prep and it makes sense, almost 5000 miles in one trip.
In other news, I discovered I have a keyless start system! xD

Fancy! My Camaro doesn’t have keyless start, though you can start it with a screwdriver, but you can remove the key while it’s running. Very convenient .

If you’re going with a communist theme, clearly you need two benches on either side of the bed so there’s enough room for everyone , comrade.
Also, have one bench able to slide to the other one in order to make one sleeping platform. You can figure out the keeping yourself dry part later.

Convert it to run on vodka

If you’re sticking with the communist theme I recommend a cheap vodka brand tribute.

Well, I guess the picture of a bottle of Popov vodka didn’t make the cut for kinja. I’m sure you can figure out your “favorite” brand of rot gut vodka though.

Why would a communist car need a key?

To open the bonnet, of course ! How else does one get to the pull starter?

I think there's a local shop that can make that. Can't stop laughing at the thought of it. xD
