I had my picture taken while mowing my yard a few years back when I lived in Hawaii. Never saw them go by.

My wife and I are looking at buying a new house.

The one we are looking most closely at, has a picture of the prior owner packing his stuff in the moving van in his sweats.

When we were in Colorado I built a spec house. The picture in street view was a fair amount older than the areal view so if you zoomed down it jumped to an old version that had me in my bobcat doing grading and landscaping.

I saw one of the cars going around Vegas a few months ago and there was something on the news that they were going around and re-doing the street views. I looked up the camera they use and you can actually buy one if you want to do your own version.

That's cool. :)

On the other hand it seems you were overtaken by a google car - they must be very fast!

They must update there more often than here. I pulled up a picture of my place a few days ago and it still showed a Comet that I had and sold 10 years ago in my driveway. So I decided to check a house they built near me about 5 years ago and it just showed the empty lot and trees that were there.

I’m on GE at two locations, both while driving my car a few miles from home.

About 7 years ago, the Google car went past while I was taking out the garbage. Several months later the view was updated and there I was. It was there for several years - not sure how often they update the views - but is now gone.

Hey, nice t shirt! :3DSMILE:
Seriously, that's a great looking car, very clean, another fan of the classic white shifter ball I see....;)
The detail is really quite good, you can even see the black lug nuts on the black wheel centers.

On the other hand it is a bit creepy too.

Funny you guys talking about the google car and backing out of my driveway today, it drives by! I'll have to keep checking my house to see if I show up!

Google is punishing me for turning up all of the privacy and anti tracking settings. last year, the maps showed my house, complete. I looked a few days back trying to use it to scale land still available and now the newest view available is 3 years old before the pad was cleared. All trees!

I had to goto a town variance hearing to put in a pool a couple of weeks ago, when they pulled up the overhead pic of my property the cobra was parked in the driveway. No one said anything, I guess they werent impressed lol.

Looks like you followed him to NJ-17 where he left you in the dust on the entrance ramp

Do you feel safe in that car? Your head is over the windshield and the steering wheel is stomach level;. just looks like the car is too small for you.
