    Thank you @SweX for the post. We had our SUV parked in our home driveway when google took a street view picture. At that time we had a small cleaning company with a professional sign on the back and rear windows both sides of the SUV showing our telephone number (cell phone number which we still use). Looks like the Google picture was taken over 2 years ago because we closed the business and removed the signs in the windows. I followed the instructions in the link and requested to blur out the entire SUV. Within 24 hours entire SUV blurred. Many Thanks SweX. :thumb: :thumb:

    The last time I checked, there is no street view of this area, not that it would reveal much. From the road, all that's visible is a couple of big shrubs and a 20 foot tall thorn hedge. Can't even see the place on the satellite view, tucked under the trees.
