MoPars on Google Earth or Virtual Earth

Postby dave-r » 02 Jun 2007 11:16

Have any of you guys ever found your own car on Google Earth?

I ask because mine was on there in two different locations at the same time!

They recently updated the images taken over my area so now it shows a Jeep Cherokee on my drive instead of the Challenger. But that still leaves one shot of it on a friends driveway.

Then I was checking out Microsofts version called Virtual Earth. There was my Challenger on the drive again!

So I was wondering if anyone else can see their MoPar on these things and has anyone else got a car in two places at the same time?

Hit the "print screen" button top right on your keyboard. Then open whatever you use for viewing photos and Ctrl + V (paste) the image in. You can then crop out all the bits you don't want to see like the controls etc.
