bentley bentayga fly fishing by mulliner is for the discerning angler

Hey you! Yeah, you with the William Fioravanti suit and Allen Edmonds wingtips. Why are you going fishing like a commoner with a lowly Porsche Cayenne? The discerning angler demands a BENTLEY BENTAYGA FLY FISHING BY MULLINER!

Special tubes, trimmed in essential saddle leather with Linen cross-stitching, reside on the underside of the parcel shelf and hold four fishing rods. These accoutrements are not known to fly fishers in my homeland. A pair of landing nets in matching leather bags are stored in a carpet-trimmed hard pocket built into the side of the cargo area.

In the rear are three saddle-leather-trimmed units: a master tackle station, a refreshment case, and waterproof stowage trunk. Owners are encouraged to store their monogrammed waders in the hand-crafted and leather-wrapped wood trunk, as it’s lined with neoprene material. I, personally, store my waders on the floor of my grandfather’s 1986 GMC truck whose rusty floorboards allow for convenient water drainage.

Fortunately, all three units — the tackle station, refreshment case, and waterproof trunk – can be removed from the Bentayga’s boot when maximum luggage space is required, such as when disposing of the serfs you had removed from your castle’s forecourt.

TTAC fully expects these to outnumber F150s and Silverados on the banks of salmon rivers worldwide by this time next year. Those who show proof of ownership of a Bentley Bentayga Fly Fishing by Mulliner are permitted to pay for their local fishing license either in weak British pounds or broken Lucas Electrics.

    Probably is delivered with a detachable penis for the under-provided owner, too. But I suppose that if I lived down by the river, under the bridge, this would be at least a comfortable crib.

    Finally something to outshine my friend Fa'ad's Holland and Holland Range Rover.

  • ToolGuy I did truck things with my truck this past week, twenty-odd miles from home (farther than usual). Recall that the interior bed space of my (modified) truck is 98" x 74". On the ride home yesterday the bed carried a 20 foot extension ladder (10 feet long, flagged 14 inches past the rear bumper), two other ladders, a smallish air compressor, a largish shop vac, three large bins, some materials, some scrap, and a slew of tool cases/bags. It was pretty full, is what I'm saying.The range of the Cybertruck would have been just fine. Nothing I carried had any substantial weight to it, in truck terms. The frunk would have been extremely useful (lock the tool cases there, out of the way of the Bed Stuff, away from prying eyes and grasping fingers -- you say I can charge my cordless tools there? bonus). Stainless steel plus no paint is a plus.Apparently the Cybertruck bed will be 78" long (but over 96" with the tailgate folded down) and 60-65" wide. And then Tesla promises "100 cubic feet of exterior, lockable storage — including the under-bed, frunk and sail pillars." Underbed storage requires the bed to be clear of other stuff, but bottom line everything would have fit, especially when we consider the second row of seats (tools and some materials out of the weather).Some days I was hauling mostly air on one leg of the trip. There were several store runs involved, some for 8-foot stock. One day I bummed a ride in a Roush Mustang. Three separate times other drivers tried to run into my truck (stainless steel panels, yes please). The fuel savings would be large enough for me to notice and to care.TL;DR: This truck would work for me, as a truck. Sample size = 1.
  • Art Vandelay Dodge should bring this back. They could sell it as the classic classic classic model
  • Surferjoe Still have a 2013 RDX, naturally aspirated V6, just can't get behind a 4 banger turbo.Also gloriously absent, ESS, lane departure warnings, etc.
  • ToolGuy Is it a genuine Top Hand? Oh, I forgot, I don't care. 🙂
