Hoping for a Yellow Jolt

[scratchpaddy]

I'm not sure how well vinyl would hold up in the sun. Besides, I'm one of the very few people who like a yellow car, apparently. The color's for me, and I'm the one who's going to see those mis-matched doorjambs every time I get in the car. I worked at a body shop for a few years, when I was in college. Details like that bug the heck out of me when they're not right.

The picture I posted was on Highway 62 in the Mojave, 75 miles east of Twentynine Palms. Googling "Rice, CA" will show you the exact spot. No one lives there. There's that husk of a gas station and a couple of burned out buildings. And shoes. Shoes, everywhere.

I've had two yellow vehicles since 1999 but in a more vibrant shade than Toyota had introduced in the Jolt. The second one I actually got rid of a mere 7 weeks ago.

When introduced, many of us YW residents were disappointed in the colour as it often appeared to be faded right from the get-go. Canada didn't get the colour offering at all.

Now if it had of looked like these, I think the uptake would have been greater.
