Do I spot a Tonka?!

It does resemble one, yes

Basically the Earth Alliance took a cockpit from a Starfury, slapped different trusses and a couple engine pods on it, attached a couple manipulator arms, and called it a Forklift Fury, or 'Maintenance Fury,' as it is better known.

"...it was never named in the show though it is often referred to as a construction or maintenance Fury by fans."

When released (Late 2011/Early-Mid 2012?) I will use the name Maintenance Fury.

I once replaced the book with Red Mars for (you guessed it) a Mars voyage. Is that okay? I also remember someone here replacing it with the IMFD manual. :lol:

Nevertheless... replace it with something silly and HE'LL GET YOU.

Does The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy count as silly?

That was for the Honda Civic. The picture is from the Toyota Corolla commercial featuring Hatsune Miku:

Not in my eyes! Love that book. The movie was fairly decent as well.

Excellent pictures :thumbup:! By the way, what launch MJD do you have (and does this affect the launch heading), and where's 19 headed to (specifically on the Moon )?
