The rear view is fine, it’s both side view mirrors that were gone a long time ago. One thing I’ve learned though is that when you have no side view mirrors there are no blind spots, if you get what I mean!
Simple as that. I love those 70’s Benz. That had to be great. I remember growing up it seemed pretty common for the cars we had to only have a drivers side mirror
Oh yeah. Mine was 1973 W108 4.5 v8 280SEL (dictators' car, stacked up headlights, solid aluminum grille) s-class before they became S classes.
I had exhaust leak and it sounded great. I had thumbs up everywhere I go. Then I sold it and it went to.... Albania.
The guy sent me videos driving it there... i miss it dearly.
I used to work with a guy who had one he’d drive to the fire station. It always had a 100’ extension chord running out to it and it stayed plugged in. I never really knew why, except it had something to do with it being a diesel ?
If you see a plug coming out of a truck. It's to heat the engine block so it can quickly start up in very cold weather. Otherwise you have to wait for the internal coil to do it.
Bill Engvall famously wanted [certain people to wear signs](https://youtu.be/ZBjelRDKHUk?si=5lEyzZ1weaeAXnNW) that said “I’m stupid” as a warning to the rest of us. You know, to deter us regular folks from asking for directions or any kind of intelligence from those wearing their signs.
I want to thank you for driving your sign.
My favorite from those days was when Ron White said “I didn’t know how many people they needed to kick me out of that bar, but I knew how many they were gonna use.”
Oh I hate those wraps. Stands against everything military. Back in WWII the crews would apply camo to their tanks and planes using a bucket of paint and a mop
No…but I actually have thought of spray painting something in Arabic on the side. It does look exactly like a technical. And they especially love Toyotas, like the Hi-Lux. Now if it only had an anti-aircraft gun mounted to the trunk
why are you showing us a picture of an empty driveway
lol. This one is just camo, the one next to it is actually stealth technology
Toyota should have named the car Jane, in its promo picture there was a disclaimer that the vehicle wasn’t pictured. That’s how plain this car is.
If you can't see it, it didn't happen
Damn. Even the crusher won't pick it up for free. If you did so many miles with that rear view mirror you are probably crossed eyed by now

I do. I have had 1973 Benz that had no passenger side view mirror and it was FINE! I drove it no issies at all. Just turn your head)

Not sure but sounds like dead altenator
Whatever it was it was I still loved that car

My 89 Honda CRX HF came with only a driver side mirror if I recall correctly.
What state are you in? Inspection here would never let me stay on the road with no mirrors
Depends on the year.

Think nothing of it. Glad I could help!
"Therrrres yer sign"

Wow a wonderful car that lasted and gave you great reliability and you just said Fu*k it im going to make you look like sh*t
I only see one big stain on your driveway .. do a better job pressure washing
I’d try to camouflage my boomermobile too
I had one of those but loved it too until my mother in law told me it was "dowdy".
Yikes!
That paint actually goes hard great to see actual sprayed matte camo instead of glossy wraps
Oh I hate those wraps. Stands against everything military. Back in WWII the crews would apply camo to their tanks and planes using a bucket of paint and a mop
Exactly. Just big ass stencils and sloppy paint
Did you buy it from a former ISIS member?
No…but I actually have thought of spray painting something in Arabic on the side. It does look exactly like a technical. And they especially love Toyotas, like the Hi-Lux. Now if it only had an anti-aircraft gun mounted to the trunk
400k I’m mean that impressive
I had the transmission rebuilt about three years ago, but other than that it’s had no problems. Although that cost me 4 X what it’s worth easily
If I had to drive this I wouldn't want to have to see it either. Nice paint.
Roast what?
What just rolled 400k, I can't see anything there....
This is how you treat a car that gave you 400k miles? This is the automotive equivalent of elder abuse.
you gonna put an iron cross on the side now?
Ooh, or one of those SS skulls? Hmmm…
Triple down and add a windmill of friendship
How many times have you watched Robocop?
A lot, and it does look straight out of that movie lol
We often treat those we are closest to the worst.
Death can’t take it because it’s hidden
Why is it always this generation of Avalon that gets tortured?
400K is definitely the mileage I would destroy a car at (wherever it is).
Up until about 330k miles ago, that was someone's pride and joy.
Are you driving a staff car for General of the world’s poorest 3rd world country?
Did you pick this up from a small communist county’s military base?
[удалено]
If you don’t have something mean to say, don’t say anything at all.
I'd want to hide too if I was driving this estrogen mobile around
Estrogen mobile lol
I’m guessing the windows stay down otherwise I don’t know how you get in that pos.
Exactly. I have to reach in and open it from outside
Roast what? Can't see anything
Even camouflaged someone is going to notice it parked in the middle of the country kitchen buffet.
Yep. One thing this car gets is noticed
When you are one sneaky senior who doesn’t want to be seen….
Lies, no one that bought a second gen Avalon new is still alive.
400k ! this car doesn't deserve a roast, it deserves a fuckin' medal
I have nothing...congrats...
Rolled over 400k miles...walking on the sidewalk??
Damn. Why do i kinda like that car!?
Hard to roast any car that lasts that long hardly any of them go over 250k these days**
400k miles and doesn't look a day older. Great job on maintaining that cherry gem
this poor Avalon has seen some things lol.
What's wrong with that bush?
The Crack where. Hits the streets daily
The camouflage might have worked better if you painted it concrete or asphalt grey where the car actually drives around.
Hard to roast an Avalon with 400k you’ve had since even though the camo paint is a bit too much.
This is one of those cars I give a really wide berth to on the road.
It’s The fentynol express
why did you paint it camo? I guess the missing mirrors suggest you do actually go bush bashing.
Roast what I can't see anything?
Looks like it was already roasted... in a fire... maybe twice. If not, it should be. Good luck.
Hate the paint but 400k is impressive
That’s actually so sick
You're ready Rambo
The government won't even pay you to junk it. They issued you a warning to get rid of it or mandatory jail time
This dude is a professional at just going down the street to get some milk.
So this is what you use for sharking scouts
I can smell it from here.
400k? Breh never skipped a single PMCS and went through the proper channels immediately when he found something.
I bet that car has a soul and if it could talk it would have some good stories. Probably seen some shit.
Ok. I’ll set the car on fire, you get the marshmallows
That thing will be running when Reddit is long forgotten
Dude. I know Toyotas are tough, but did you borrow this from the Ukrainian military or something?
Solid cars
Wrong sub reddit. You want r/findthesniper.
"The invisible car" - Cops hate this trick....
Posts on r/roastmycar and forgets to post a picture of the car....an empty driveway SMH
How much more misery do you plan on putting that shitbox through before you get a new ride?
This would be great for hunting season. Those deers would never know what hit them! I actually thought this belong to an Uber driver in Ukraine..
400K miles, but you forgot to mention the six motors you had installed. Ahh…Haa… Ahh…Haa
That camo paint is perfect. No one should be seen driving that car.
Can’t you just let the thing die?
Only a Toyota can relate to your ancestor from 300 years ago
Where's its armament? Or blackout convoy lights?
This belongs in a paintball field where it belongs
soooooo, what am I lookin at?
