We have to drive to where we fish and in the way of Itinerant Angler, our vehicles are a major part of our journey.
My truck happens to be pretty clean and new but I know that there are some pretty crazy fishing vehicles out there (my old Subaru would have been a great example) Or I can just think about my grandfather and his truck was a perfect example. He had the truck that smelled like fish and the birds followed him everywhere he went.
Kevin…great photo…and NICE HAT!
My fishing vehicle is a 2004 Honda Element EX. We have about 110,000 miles on “The Box”…with nary the first mechanical problem.
(Kevin…your hat matches my car.
poor poor old Ross Reel hat. That is like kind of like introducing a puppy to the family dog.
Retired head wear could be a thread all it’s own. 🙂
Cameron – That hat is a Joel Special.
(How many shoes can you get in that box? 🙂 )Those old Willies are about as sweet as it gets. I can see your boat behind that old Willy.
Old Land Cruisers, Land Rovers, Broncos, Scouts… all tops in my book.
😉 ;D

Hey wait a minute, where the hell is my dashboard. Since my oldest daughter started driving last March I seem to have lost my car. Nowadays my work vehicle is a Gary Fisher Zebrano, maybe that’s why I haven’t been fishing much lately?
Don’t worry Gary,a fisher is way cooler than DA’s Volvo 😀
Didnt you know – those Aussies are upside down and even the water in their toilet spins another direction.
David – What kind of car is this?
No picture but my fishing ride is called “The Trout Tank” a 1995 Chevy Corsica 4 door, 197,000 miles, paid 150.00 for it.
Will, I’ve been wondering whats wrong with the car ever since I got it and now I know, thanks !

This is NOT my car .. but I couldn’t resist posting it to this thread. In my opinion it is the best fishing ride I have seen! Elvis was on the side panel.
Deadwood, SD, Sturgis weekend, August 2004 on our way to Alaska. The Milepost is on the dashboard. An Alaska Fly Shop hat is now on the same dashboard.
Not quite on topic but…………

Yeah this is what happens if we try to use US designed Toilet bowls down here…….
Seems the Brits have a reputation for nasty dirty dashboards….

posted: 5 DAYS 6 HOURS AGOLONDON (Sept. 16) – If a man’s home is his castle, then maybe his car is his trash can: A study found the typical car has 283 different types of bacteria present in every square inch.
Microbiologists from Britain’s Aston University found the dirtiest part of the vehicle was the gear stick, home to 356 germs on a square centimeter.
One in four of 1,376 car owners polled said their car is littered with food wrappers and empty drink bottles, while one in six admitted to regularly leaving uneaten food in their vehicle.
Half of the drivers admitted the standard of cleanliness in their car left much to be desired and they would never let their home get into the same condition.
The study also found a strong correlation between the mileage of the car and the bacterial and fungal air quality………………………….Even hair dressers wouldn’t take one off-road, though it does go most places I need to go. 😉
My wife has a Subaru Outback that I would prefer to be our fishing vehicle especially with today’s gas prices. We tend to still take the truck.
Corey, I LOVE IT… The Old Subaru replace the velvet that those paintings were meant for and for the most part fishing is a religious experience. The water is the bast church I know.
Marc P – we need to see the “Trout Tank Corsica”
