Ozark Shark 114 Posted May 19 (edited) Impressive. On the opposite end of the spectrum was the strip mine shovel operator who thought he could meter out a bit of the 50 yards of spoil he had in his bucket into the "bed" of an F150. It blew out the sides of the bed, flatten the cab and compressed the hood and fenders into the shape of the engine below. Dad fixed a lot of them for the mine, but that one was an unrecoverable total. Edited May 19 by Ozark Shark 1 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was ready for the operator to grab the spaghetti strap of the green camisole. Icing on the cake, so to speak. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
