Letter "U" -- Friday's Weekend Roundup 11 and Reflections and/or Street/Candid Captures
This Week's Prompts: Starts with "U." A Favorite. "U"tility. Reflections and/or Street/Candid Captures.
And Reflections and a Street/Candid Capture: Also note from the picture above the Reflections from the hood. And then the Capture of the fellow and lady making a transaction. Are they checking to make sure nobody got gipped in the coffee and refreshment deal.

Starts with "U": Up starts with "U". Guys, never, never, leave the seat Up. (Some like the top lid up, bottom down. Makes for a rush relief faster.)
Tom's choice, "Utility": Pickup trucks are Utility vehicles. When they appear with a car front and a hauling bed behind, example, the Ford Ranchero, the Australians and New Zealanders call them Utes.
The one above is a VW Ute we found while walking in New Zealand. We arrived very early in the morning for our cruise, Aukland, New Zealand to the bottom of NZ, then over to Tasmania, Australia, and up to Sydney. So we spent the morning examining the central NZ opposite of Aukland.
Read of that here,

A Favorite: Another Utility Vehicle that we found in Lisbon, Portugal. This is a Citroen 2CV Food Truck find in Lisbon, Portugal while we were visiting there in November. I bought an Ice Cream Bar from the owner. I couldn't find this easily, but I think there may be another letter behind the "2CV" for trucks. The Citroen 2CV models were made from 1948 to 1990. A Collector Car now they are priced in the mid $25K's and up.
