    my truck full of tools and junk in the cab is 400- 500 lbs heavier than cleaned out and only having the basic 5 gallon bucket of tools.
    That adds up over the miles.

    I cannot push enough for people to plant their own food, it's one of the highest bills in any household. any time you can chip away at that one, is worth a little work in my mind.

    There ain't nothing wrong with an honest days work. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool.- Old Man

For the moment I have to depend on the wife and her 1/2 ton Chevy. One week at a time. Sorry Old Dude, did not mean to derail the thread from coke a cola to beer.

    A tomato grown in your own garden always seems to taste better than the ones from the store, too!
