Those were newer, obviously expensive vehicles. My main prep vehicle is an eminently reliable, nicely-dented, primer-painted, '86 Ford three-quarter-ton diesel that looks like something the crew of Animal House would've created in their garage for the college parade. It absolutely reeks of White-trash-don't-give-a-phlying-phluck attitude. In truth, that doesn't represent the essence of my personality, but when I drive it you would be astounded at the extreme courtesy I am afforded on the highway by those in expensive cars! LOL! Your Lexus or Mercedes vs. my F250. Wanna dance? (Heh, heh)
Best regards
