I think they have a special class in high school they teach them that and other various stuff to keep us in line.

Here's a landscaper's "Rust Bucket Special" for Steve.
Wife complaining movie is too old and I'm just watching it for the old cars and trucks. That's what I get, she's 13 years younger than me.
Update! Wife just fell asleep..... So did the youngest. Continue my Dent Spotting.

Thats funny, We were walking in walmart one night and this older couple was starring at us, my wife took my hand, looked into my eyes and said loud enough so they could hear- Daddy I am glad we are so close. I think the old lady about had a stroke.
My wife took my mother in law to eat one day at Subway, the next day at lunch we went back on my lunch break- The manager said isn't that sweet- you took your mom to lunch yesterday and taking you dad today- My wife gave him the look and said: This is my husband- the manager quickly disappeared and lunch was free.
I needed a young one to be able to push my wheelchair one day..

Mine's only 5 yrs younger than me but there is a big difference in being in high school in the late 80s to being in high school in the mid 90s.
I still had to research homework at the library and leave messages for friends on answering machines. She surfed the net for info and called her friends on the their cell phone or pager. She has more in common with our 15 yr old than I do.

My 12 year old has no idea of life before: Microwaves, 200 channels of cable TV, cell phones, Walmart or GPS devices. Would freak out if I started talking about: Beta, video disc, cassettes or 8 track players. Our trucks were Classics when she was born... Dang I feel old now.

I know the feeling, my kids asked me if we had color when I was a kid.... Gezzz.
Here's my latest find from this morning, located a few miles from my house and just around the corner from the body shop that will be doing my paint job is this fine F250 High Boy. I have seen this truck here before and it doesn't look like it gets used a lot but it's in pretty good condition.

Not all Dents but what the he!!. You sir a a Fordiphile.
I missed two awesome dents yesterday. A '78 4wd painted a cool dark charcoal green and like a '73-'76 2wd in a navy blue. They were like seconds apart and I barely had time to give them a good look much less bring my camera into action.
There are still a bunch I've missed. If I started doing Bumps and others I would have used up my album space ages ago.
I saw one today that I'll have to see if I can catch again. It even had slots.
