    @wheeljack wanted one then, and still want one today. (But finding one in really good condition in this rare color with a manual transmission is a challenge.)

    Six-Wheel Clio Pickup? That’s Not Even the Weirdest Car in This No-Reserve Renault Heritage AuctionSure, you'd have to ship the cars back to the States, but where else are you going to get something so strange?https://www.thedrive.com/news/six-wheel-clio-pickup-thats-not-even-the-weirdest-car-in-this-no-reserve-renault-heritage-auction#WeirdCarMastodon

    From yesterday’s walk around the junkyard. The Junkmaster said this one will be making the move to his future dream junkranch. I want to try and get at least one of the many cars that will be available running myself. This might be first on my list. He said it needs a clutch but was a driver when parked. Should be relatively easy to get running good enough for a ranch runabout. I would probably take the doors off and not worry about a new top. #JunkyardLife #weirdcarmastodon

    @thegaffer @pluralistic The shooting sports community has been working for years to do something similar, replacing the term "accidental discharge" with "negligent discharge" to reflect the fact that barring extremely rare mechanical malfunctions, guns don't just go off on their own.If it fires without you intending, it's because you were doing something stupid and dangerous like having it loaded when you shouldn't have, leaving your finger on the trigger, etc.So just like with a significant number of car crashes, it's not an accident it's negligent behavior on the part of the operator. This sort of terminology should become more prevalent in general.
