    well for me it comes down to filling up the truck . you never know what mother load you will find / garbage day or not . Seems that if you just get out on the road some how it happens. In our economy people consume & get rid of what disturbs them, much of it has metal. whats nice is many home owners are sensitive to the scrapers as they leave item in plane view
    If i see the home owner i often say thank you & give a smile.

    I agree. I live 15-20 miles away from the closest town, and anytime I take my truck somewhere, I make sure I bring it back at the very minimum, half full. But keep your eyes peeled and you'll be surprised.
