Not to be a jerk, but who owns your truck actually? As a parent, I can tell you we expect if we're payinhg for it, we have some "rights" to it. Of course, that also means we have "ownership" in a different way -- we might care about it more in some respect. Hope your Dad does anyway!

I'm sure he'll be nice to it. Sometimes trucks just have to be used as, well, TRUCKS!

You would be more nervous if I was driving it! I've trashed one Ranger on the street, and beat this one up pretty good offroad (though I"ve remedied most of that). Just be glad it's not me, lol!

Gee, I hope your dad the current driver of that vehicle knows he is carrying a hand gun.
I bet it is loaded and within reach of the driver too...

Hey, Neil, we're talking Mississippi here! In much of the south the odd vehicle NOT carrying a weapon is the exception, lol! It's not so accepted up here, though it was more when I was a kid than it is now. I grew up in a South Jersey rural community and handguns and hunting weapons were routinely carried.

I have a modified SuperSoaker with an ultrasonically welded high pressure polyethylene tank. I can shoot a stream of water through SIX FEET of Jello at 50 yards. Don't ask me how I know this...

Color me surprised! .. Although I'm shocked you used the plastic supersoaker as a base. Figured you for a home-depot sepecial made out of industrial strength pluming suplies. We all knew that air tank in the back was for more than just airing up tires.. ;-)

HA HA HA! .. I just put mine back in the truck from after the trip to PA. Mine is < 2/yo (how old is my truck?!) and is beat to hell. The scraper is bent over in one place and half the plastic handle has broken off! I should add that I've already used it twice this season. AND I park in a covered garage!

HA HA HA HA... Silly Texans!

I will test fire it at pudding, since jello makes me feel all funny when I look at it.

Leo, I know you know tools -- but you spelled "Klein" wrong -- better go look at them and make sure their "genuine", lol!
