Spotted a Phoon

Rolled up behind this yesterday, right up the street from my house. Have never seen it before, but it was sporting a licence plate frame from the now defunct Smythe Buick/Pontiac/GMC dealership on Steven's Creek. Cool to see another Sy/Ty truck in the wild, nevertheless. It was pretty beat, though.

It's got Calli plates on it, shouldn't be rusty. What's beat up on it? Looks not bad in the pics.

The paint was oxidized and truck was very dirty in general. Otherwise, looked pretty straight. The front tires stuck way farther out than the rears, as viewed from behind. I'm not sure if this is a normal thing with Typhoons or not, but the offsets looked mismatched.

Yeah, that's probably what happened. Or he had wider tires on the front. It looked funny.
