Tanks-a-Lot: 1991 Chevrolet Astro Van
The following car isn’t practical, functional, or logical, but it is what 10-year-old me wants to drive. In a world where we are told to “act adult,” “do the right thing,” and “be mature,”…this is different. It uses the original Chevy van engine to run a hydraulic pump that is then fed to two pump turbines, allowing this thing to drive like a real tank. Find this 1991 Chevrolet Astro Van offered for $8,500 in Waterford, CA via facetrack bookzipo.

Is your omission of an active link an attempt to prevent interested buyers from scooping up this beauty to add some fun to potential bay area commutes? Don’t save all the gems for yourselves. LMAO.
Hey Bikerjosh,
My buddy told me about this super-cool website called GOOGLE.
Apparently, all you do is copy/paste a line of text from the thing you’re trying to find (like part of the ad, above), put it in quotes, and VOILA! — THE GOOGLE finds it for you!
I know, it’s crazy.
But it works.
Saves me tons of time.

I feel like my sarcasm is lost on some. Last thing my marriage needs is another new vehicle in the backyard. :)
Your sarcasm wasn’t lost on me, buddy.
It simply prompted more sarcasm (from me). 😜

You did not provide sarcasm. You just spewed out the usual “google it” crap that people who do not like conversation regurgitate.
”Whada you mean, it won’t fit through the carwash?”
Here is the link if you can’t get enough.

After some exhaustive digging I discovered by-far the best link regarding the precision build of this astonishing conveyance. To say I’m impressed would be a diplomatic understatement.
