Any NFL history trivia fans here? This is the VPG MV-1.

Built in Indiana at an AM General plant, VPG makes wheelchair-accessible taxicabs and vans. MV-1 stands for Mobility Vehicle-1.

The first MV-1 rolled off the line in October 2011 and was delivered to disabled former American football player Marc Buoniconti. Marc is the son of Nick Buoniconti, a 2x Super Bowl champion and NFL Hall of Famer. Sadly, Marc was paralyzed from the shoulders down making a tackle against East Tennessee State in 1985. He was 19 and he played for The Citadel. Today he is 55 and fortunately he has outlived his prognosis.

A few nights ago I saw a red Ford Focus 4 door with a 'Be Patient, Student Driver' sticker on the body just to the left of the rear plate.

It had Texas Dealer Plates (actual plates, not paper), and a Carvana (Aren't they bankrupt ?) LP frame.

The person was driving in a very tentative manner.

It was at night, and the windows were tinted to the legal limit. I couldn't see inside to see if a teen was driving with an adult in the passenger seat).

Carvana still has a pulse.

ehhh..........my buddy got the first year they came out. I think its tiny inside (he is a shorter Asian guy).

I'd buy a manual one in a unique color (hint NOT silver/red/black) and I'd bet in 20 years you would have a big money collectible.

Saw a 80/90's (?) Toyota Land Cruiser with retro orange/red/black graphics the other day. It was pretty cool, and only the second one I've ever seen like that.

I saw a Mercedes Wagon G Class. Its not often you see a $120,000 plus vehicle in my neck of the woods although there are weekend estates that people in NY and NJ now own and may commute from. Old farms, etc. I call them " The Enclave".

The G wagens are literally a dime a dozen in my area. Unless is a weird color I don't even look at them.

Same for the Aston Martin SUV and Bentley SUV but I will say the Rolls Cullinan SUV still gets my attention.

Saw a new Bronco in what I am assuming was a wrap so that the paint scheme mimicked a 70s Bronco. It was a Lime Green with brown stripes. I did look up the Heritage Editions and it didn't match any of those so it was probably custom.
