Well, maybe the driver HIMSELF is saying that he is a Chevy. Ever think of that?

A geo is a chevy body with a toyota engine. When geo folded Chevy took them over, that is why there are chevy trackers, prizms (which is a corolla with a chevy body), and metros. GM and toyota have a partnership that is why the pontiac vibe and the toyota matrix have the same engine but different bodies.

correct. I used to own one. Slow as ballz for sure and everyone considers them a joke, but for a FEW things, like in the snow, off-road, and with the top off, it was fun and pretty capable of anything I threw at it. And unlike Wranglers, the top took about half the time to remove/put on, and it got around 25mpg. Still, it's definately not a good daily driver

i can't really tell for sure (the pic is a bit blurry and overexposed, and my monitor here at work is a POS) but that isn't a US plate, is it? i don't recognize it.

it is built by chevy. Geo is a sub division of them. If you look now, there are no long geo trackers, they are chevy trackers.

bhayes82,

I took that picture this morning while driving. I see this guy every day. Also, that is a US plate. Indiana...baby! Nothing is better entertainment than us Indiana Hicks!!!



Would those stickers on the tracker classify as RICE?

I am pretty sure that is an Indiana license plate, but I could be wrong. The numbering looks a little iffy though. ::

Yea, you're correct. Isuzu Impuse = Geo Storm (and I challenge you to find one without rust)

I love that fancy spare tire cover lettering, just think someone accually went to a hardware store and bought the letters. Then took the time to peel the back off every letter and "install them". Then probably looked back at his work and said,"Yea Baby Yeah!!!! I have the super chick magnet!"[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
