Yes... it's a term from by gone days as California Titles were pink at one time.

I still have a drawer full but not so common to see unless you have owned the vehicle for a very long time...

Oops. Showing my age.

Yes, 'Pink Slip' was the title document you sign on the back to release the vehicle to the next owner.

That term applied: Way back in the American Graffiti / Beach Boys era - before VN - it was common to challenge another street racer (drag racing, not Rally) to 'Let's go for pinks!'

... or so I heard ... :)

I've been so propositioned a few times and it's all I can do to keep from laughing...

Guy’s rooftop cargo carrier popped open while driving……saw some clothing type items on the road then saw him pulled over about a tenth of a mile up.

Always double check a secure load - no matter how small.

Last time I was in that situation I was coming down the miles-long grades from Donner Pass to the Valley in a 56 Willys Wagon that had a worn out 259 Studebaker V8. (essentially a SBC, they bolt up to the Jeep transmission, a popular combo a half century ago.) With the Willy's low Jeep-ratio axles the thing was screaming at some unGodly rpm going freeway speed down the mountain. Along comes an apparent twin to it, another Willys Wagon, much faster. Must have had a modern V8 and the Warn overdrive. He gestured, accelerated, did everything he could to challenge a race. Sorry bro, this little short-stroke V8 is already spinning as fast as it can go risking grenading. Not gonna race.

Nothing to do but laugh!
