When carsitting...

Recommended Posts

I'd bury the speedo. >:(

Once I borrowed a friend's sports car, only because he asked to borrow my truck for a deer hunting trip.

So there I am, going a pretty sane 80 mph, and approaching a slower beat up pickup truck. As I'm about to catch up to it, it starts to speed up as if the dumbass driver refuses to let me pass him. Duh, he looks like a redneck. So, like a piece of cake, I floor it and easily pass him and take off. However, I got stuck behind a bunch of cars, and this idiot comes right up to my bumper like an angry hornet. So I hit the gap and take off, and he follows, trying to get me back. I refuse to allow it. So, there I am, weaving in and out of traffic at 90 mph with the idiot desperately trying to keep up, then I shoot through a closing gap between two 18 wheelers, trapping him behind them and I floor it to 130 mph. >:( Problem solved. Guess I ruined his happy mood... :D:D:D

Please, please, bury the speedo. Get rid of that thong while you're at it.

Oh, wait, you're talking about the speedometer! :$

i remember an article in car & driver way back when called 'the high speed handling characteristics of a pickup truck', written by pj o'rourke. funniest damn thing i ever read. i'd try everything he said. he described several different cornering techniques (late apex, trailing brake, early turn in etc.) and they all ended with things like, 'this will put you into the woods.' 'this will roll the truck several times, and put you in the woods.' 'this will cause the truck to spin out, flip in mid-air, and put you in the woods.'

Well, hypothetically (of course), I'd treat it with lots of TLC and wash it and wax it and sweep it out and even clean the windows and dash...

But that's just me. :P



But what if this hypothetical truck was full of stuff? How could I hypothetically clean it without going through all this hypothetical stuff?

A shipping store would have them, but I could probably get them free from work. >:(

With the amount of hypothetical stuff in the hypothetical truck, it wouldn't take that many. ;)
