Armchair Tourism, Part 4

Searching Google for interesting car sightings can be interesting because you won't know what you'll find, and some places have a lot more unexpected cars than others.Viewing streets in Texas is a littlle bit more promising than someplace in, say, New England or Minnesota.
Texas is second only to California for vehicle registrations. That means there is only 1 state with more cars than Texas. Add to that the fact the Texas does not use road salt and you can expect a better variety. Fewer risks of rust and warmer weather means older, rarer cars are more common and in use.
So I was looking at the neighborhoods in Copperas Cove and, in a typical suburban neighborhood with ordinary cars, this shows up. Its an Isuzu Impulse, a car that was never very common even when it was new. This one has tinted windows and black wheels for a more menacing appearance. We have to wonder what the owners future plans are for this car. Seeing as there's a Honda Civic tuner special in the driveway, I'm sure he has something in store for the Isuzu.
For what its worth, the mountainous terrain on the outskirts of Copperas Cove looks absolutely amazing.
