    This is my Ironman when I still owned it and lived in Cali! I know for a fact because the for sale sign was on our lawn, and I was the Realtor! LOL Summer of 2006!

    That's Wallyworld...like speed cameras, I know they are there. I just don't want their F#@$ing sattelites aimed at my house. Isn't there some Moojie in Pakistan it needs to be pointed at? Think I'm going to paint a special message on my shingles...more a hand signal really.

    My house must be too "rural" for their handy camera work. No images available there. Would't matter though since the driveway would be empty and the VX in the garage.

    Looked up my work and managed to find my WRX though.

    When I am bored at work, I will punch in random addresses and see what pops up. Passes the time. :bgwg:

    Not even close! This topic came up on the Rennlist forums earlier this year when a guy freaked out that his Porsche was caught on the Goog's street view camera in front of his house. His objection was that now any crook knows where to find his car, and will naturally assume there are things worth stealing in his house.

    My VX shows up in some of the bird's-eye view photos of my house, as well.

    The Goog is still mostly benign, and would likely take down the photo or edit it if you did not want the picture available on the web.

    I've also heard a few stories of guys getting busted because of their picture in front of a nudie bar, but who knows if there's any truth to that.

    Cool,

    You can easily spot the Proton in mine:

    It was interesting tho, the first pic was taken in the summer and you couldn't see anything because of the trees. When I rotated it tho, it was a winter pic. The yellow behind the VX is the SeaDoos.

    Does anyone remember the Google Map where we all stuck pushpins where we live? Well, that now has StreetView integrated. I was able to find someone's VX in their driveway in Utah.

    You can see my Subaru, but the VX is hiding in the garage.

    This link might work.

    Besides... Google Maps works in my browser, whereas Microsoft's just don't.
