Hahaha - this is definitely my new favorite word! We live in a small, rural town and there are tons of them around!Skookum said:...huge brodozer pickup...
To us, "toaster" means Airstream. When my kids were young, one of them saw an Airstream and said "that camper looks like a toaster"...and it stuck!SarniaTricia said:I have had the pleasure of towing a toaster shaped TT (18ft 1984 lynx) with a toaster shaped TV (2000 Astro Van)....

I used to call them that until I bought a rebuilt Avion. I called it WINNER because that is what that shape was.BruceinFL said:Sorry, Airstreams are not toasters....DW calls them iron lungs. ;D

I'm headed into building and heard squealing... turned around and watched a pick-up (pulling a long "car trailer" style setup that wasn't loaded except for some garden equipment on the tail of the trailer) spin all the way around and stop in the median facing the other direction.
