In college my 79 Toyota Celica Coupe hauled a few in it's time. When I got out and joined the working world one of my first big purchases was a pickup. Man I wish I had the Celica still. I am not a mechanic by any means, but anytime it had a problem, it was put together simply enough that along with my rudimentary mechanical knowledge, I could fix it myself. It helped though that if I screwed it up, I had a father, and a few uncles that could fix pretty much anything. That always gave me the confidence to try. You have no idea how many times I wished any of them, especially my father, were around to help me or just walk me through something or how many times I beat myself up for not paying attention and learning just some of what they could do, like welding for example. It certainly must skip a generation because none of that interested me when I was young but my son seems to have inherited some of the natural fix-it aptitude that I didn't get.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

This is my perferred way when I'm in my car. That getup had the potential to go terribly awry. Yep if that pole saw catches a power line he'll go back to the future Only if he's going 88 MPH. Anything less and he'll be back to dust.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Tied a nice 8 point on the hood of a Camaro in the mid 80's.... got a lot of looks on the way back to Montgomery in I-65.

I have a truck, but sometimes I hunt during the week and I drive my Dodge caliber to work with all my gear crammed in there. Mind you it's a hatchback but I use a old painters tarp and plastic and have hailed a few deer in it.
May not have killed anything, but always a good time
