I tried finding my truck on google earth a while back. The school I go to has really clear pictures of the campus on it. So I went to the lot that I park everyday, but couldn't find my truck. They must have took the photos in the summer or something. Pretty cool though because the pictures were so crystal clear.

What elevation is that at? I can't get a descent level of detail over Wichita to even tell a truck from a semi. The images look rather dated for our area anyways.

If you live in a well populated area, use Live Image Search and use the birds eye veiw then you can get pictures that will zoom right up to your truck......its pretty sweet

My truck sleeps in the garage, but the Google earth pic of my Mom house has my MDX in the driveway. They took that snapshot while I was in my hometown on vacation, which, now-a-days, is rare....

My truck is kept in the garage also. The pictures over my house are too far away to see it anyhow. You can tell it's a house but you can't make out vehicles in the driveway.

I think I see my Ranger in my old driveway in Texas. There's a black car in the driveway at my current house, but it's right outside my garage and that's where my trailer sits, so it must be an old picture because this house was unoccupied for a year when we moved in.

"Sorry but we don't have zoom imagery at this level for this region"

Sometimes, it doesn't suck to be out in the sticks...y'all can just leave me the hell alone...

Although the image of our HQ shows my vehicle when you zoom in tight enough.
