Was in Pasadena yesterday and saw a Right Drive Gen2 Ranger. Sign on the side of the truck said "Clean Streets". Looked like some sort of clean up worker behind the wheel.

might have been converted. there are companies that make kits for various vehicles to convert them to right drive (usually for postal work). theres a right hand drive mid 90's escort running around my area.

i think subaru themselves actually made some like that for that purpose(or imported them). some chevys also, the RPO code is some thing like ug4 or something, which designates it as government special production(post office)

In my '68 VW bus there was a punchout on the right side of the floor for the steering crap. I always wanted to install dual steering wheels. That would be the shit right there.

"Hold the wheel Bro, I'm going in the back to drain the main."
"Dude, get me some more coffee on your way.'

i got my licence with out taking a road test!!!:clapping:
i moved here from canada, and i had my permit at the time. but in canada, it doesnt say permit on it!!! it only says "class-g1" g2 is probationary licence and "G" is full licence. mine said "G1", which is a permit. i took it to the dmv, thinking that i was just going to swap it for a ny state permit. the lady at the counter said "okay, heres you licence!". I SAID "SEE YA!". and never took a road test!!!! dont worry though! this was like 6 years ago! and in canada, i took a 48hr in-class drivers ed class, and 12hr in-car drivers ed. so i had some experience..... the only bad thing was, for about the first year, i was always worried they would finally find their error, and take away my licence.... but luckly, that day never came!!!!:pray::pray::pray:

p.s., please dont call i.n.s.!!!:secret: ha ha.

I failed my first road test...guy had me pull into a back street and stop...then said, "OK, back up to that first garage"...

I did everything right...except I did it at about 20 Kph...guess the guy didn't know that I'd been driving without my licence for for about six months before I decided to make myself legal...
