Bangkok Barry Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 black pick-up car wreckage Despite the extent of the wreckage, the pickup clearly isn't black. If you are going to report the colour of the vehicle, which is anyway totally irrelevant, at least get it right. Jeez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
