lol..
that's just one genre of course...
old military-based acronyms.

there are whole other realms of course.
NRE
SO
OSO
for example, and on and on.

( one means 'new relationship energy', one means Significant Other, and

  gets complicated when people start talking about their OSO's DW's
daughter .
( DW = dear wife )  lol.

still got a great 87 Syncro Doka with 1.9 AAZ TD engine for sale here in
So. Oregon .
runs fine ...needs various cosmetics like a headliner , etc.
asking price is $ 15,500 and I am pretty sure the owner would take 'any
decent' offer.  Needs a new home for sure.

bfn ( bye for now )
