Lighter Side: Poor A34 Still Parked, Waiting on Amerijet
The legendary A34

The long-suffering vehicle known as A34 has been gathering dust for weeks, much to the frustration of its owner, Lionel Max Hurst.

The problem? Replacement parts that never seem to land. Thanks to Amerijet skipping cargo discharges for two straight weeks, A34 is starting to look more like a lawn ornament than a road warrior.

“Once the parts finally arrive, it’ll be back on the road,” Hurst insisted—though at this rate, A34 might qualify for antique status before that happens.

For now, the car sits idle, teaching its owner (and the neighborhood) a lesson in patience.

    Poor A34, probably tired of waiting and wishing it had wings of its own

    The legendary A34 has to be knighted! It deserves some sort of government recognition for being the oldest car driving! Identified by its many patches it’s truly not about the looks but more about the life
