My neighborhood.....

OK, kinda bummed because my water pump is leaking so I though I would post this. This baby is a daily driver for one of my neighbors. I took this picture from my back patio! Unfortunately this is a gasser but some of the highlights are:
-Straigh piped 6" chrome stacks
-Antlers on the hood
-Antlers on the roof
-A skull of some kind on the wood tool box in the back
-Super heavy duty grille guard
-Home made wood hood scoop (just recently installed!)
-Brown velour interior c/w dingle ***** that would make cheech and chong proud (sorry couldn't get a pic)
-4 tires on the truck and 3 spares (note the condition of the one on the front). If you added up all the tread on all 7 tires you would not get one good tire, not even close. This comes in handy in the winter and is when you can really appreciate the stcaks. This truck gets stuck in the middle of the road at least 4 times a week. And putting the pedal to the floor is the preffered choice to attempt at getting un stuck! Usually happens around 5 AM (this guy is an early riser), doesn't bother me as I am up but my wife will hurt this guy bad if she ever gets her hands on him!

What do you guys think??

Darren, this post, and especially your description of the whole experience of living beside this "individual" really made my day. I don't think I have laughed as hard in a long time. But my guess is that at 5am you are not laughing. This could be the beginning of a whole new forum section: "My Hillbilly Neighbours".
Thanks so much, Darren.

No problem guys!
If I can figure out you tube I will take a video of this guy in the winter stuck in the middle of the road, foot to the floor. It is truly a sight to behold! At -40 the trail of exhaust from the stacks at WFO is truly amazing. I can see the whole show from my bedroom window!

Don't get me wrong. I always help my heighbors when they are stuck but not when they keep doing the same thing over and over at 5 AM! I think that is the definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over againa and expecting a different result?

Does this guy look like Randy Quaid? Do you live somewhere in Idaho? Does he have a lawnmower with a V8?

LOL it appears that you are living Richard Prior's life in the movie "Moving"!
