This 1980 Citroen van, which the owner told me came from the fire service and had only 11k miles when it was imported here. The thing looked new.

These truly make the best food trucks. Nothing more classy than an H van!

I have never seen an HY van, but that one looks amazing! The city must not have had many fires.

Saw my first 2CV in the wild this weekend. I regret I didn’t have a chance to take a photo. Quite clean.

It’s a Citroen HY! Awesome old things! Not the most comfortable though! :P

The verb is “ onduler ”, in the case of the HY it’s called “ tôle ondulée ” (“ corrugated iron ”, you even have a HY on the Wikipedia page).

A UPS (Uninteruptible Power Supply) is called an “ onduleur ”.

It did, but they usually burned themselves out before this could arrive.

True, it saves a lot of work for the firefighters but not a lot of houses.

This cyclist cafe has this seating area in SF, I pass by it sometimes. The van looks pretty beat up.
