Oh I'm no fool when it comes to judging these two trucks. They are both beautiful works of art. Maybe the spreader is just taking a little nap? while the Monkey Face stands guard. Yeah that's it. LOL

I wish those two trucks, and a bunch of other trucks, were still sitting in my yard like that. Good times. I miss you guys already. Homade is a very nice truck.

When I saw the thread title "Monkey Face & Manure Spreader" I thought we were going to talk obscure bands of the 60's...

But seriously folks, I've driven both of those trucks and they are like our women folk... each looks a little different, they have nice curves and they each handle in very different ways!

I own a Manure Spreader but have this hanging in my garage. What does that say about me?

It says you acted faster than me. I went to my local Cracker Barrel and they were all sold out. The manger took my name and contact information but she said they only buy so many and probably won't ever order more.

Actually, we were on vacation in Virginia to see our daughter and stopped in a CB there. It was hiding in a corner, and was discounted 40 something percent IIRC. I got it for $17.

We don't have Cracker Barrels in CA. The company has too much sense to open any stores here.

That is on my bucket list, maybe next year..... Amazing trucks. I would love to have the opportunity to sit in either, let alone drive one.

If I had money.....

Sparta, KY 475 miles and 7 hours to your town. I should be able to get there for a breakfast ride.
Well shoot, then I need to hop on over to docs for an evening ride, then the next morning I could find Ray and take Missy Green out for a spin. Let me go tell my wife my plans...be right back.
