Topic: Is my R-Pod totaled?? Looking for advice Posted: 04 Jul 2020 at 8:44am |
Funny how local television talking heads all sound like they came from Los Angeles. Regional accents and idioms are disappearing from American English. Soon, everyone will sound like s/he came from the San Fernando Valley.

We call it a shell.

Maybe it should be called a secure light utility truck cargo bed enclosure. Kind of like a manually actuated portable inertial impact device valued at $26,000 by the USAF and which can be purchased at Big Box Building Supply for $18, or at a dollar store for $1.
Boy has this topic drifted off the original issue.

The trailer may not be totaled, but the topic has been totaled.
