Sting, Andy, or Stewart?

I see the one pretty frequently actually, so it was definitely the two together that made it interesting.

That one was silver.

Although, you joke, but Maryland's "public safety worker" cemetery is only a few miles away.....

Saw a Ford Raptor today.

Holy crap, that's a wide truck with the altered sheet metal.

Was behind a neon green Tesla roadster on 78 East this morning.

Kinda cool car, but seriously fugly color. Ruined the look. I thought it was a nasty Elise or heavily modded/body-kitted S2000 at first.

Edit: Almost exactly like this one:

Saw a Ford Fiesta the other day. Not a high-end mark and probably won't be an unusual sighting for long but it was the first I'd seen on the streets in person. Not bad for Ford's little car.

I have seen these cars around Boston for the past year, but never posted about them. They are prior-gen Volvo S80 limos. There is one that regularly parks outside of my school, and I had no clue who it belonged to. Turns out that the local Volvo dealer has two of them that they use as a shuttle to Boston and Cambridge.

Funny, I'm about to call those guys to check on a few things before my basic warranty expires.

Saw an Alpina B7 on the West Side Hwy. this morning.

Seemed awfully silly to me, honestly. Made me think the owner has more money than common sense.
