When You Live on a Dirt Road...

You think I need to wash my truck? Someone actually wrote "wash me" on the tailgate but you can't see it anymore. HA, what were they thinkin'! Peer pressure has never worked on me.

A coworker told me I needed to wash it yesterday. I, oh course, asked why? He said "cause it's BROWN!" My response, "It's Fall, brown is in." Sheesh, you'd think they'd never see a truck covered in 3 inches of dirt downtown.

The only thing that may get me in trouble is the license plate. You can barely make out the numbers, only because they are raised. (I fuzzed them out in the pic. Don't want y'all trackin' me down!) I'm waiting to get pulled over though. It's just a matter of time. You think the "brown is in" line will work with a cop? Yea, me either. Maybe if I say it while I'm resting the twins on the window sill of the door and throwing my hair back. Yea, that'll do it! I'm ready now!

Girl. That made me laugh. So hard. The comment about resting the twins.

My truck is always filthy. I live on a gravel road. It can't be clean. It's impossible!

I only wash my truck we were goin to the big city on a date it's a yr old I have washed it once.

It cost like a gabillion quaters to wash my dually and in these hard times I really don't want to have to cash in a CD to do it
So I think whats the point ?
Plus rain is comin so God will give us a free wash:-)

My truck is never clean anymore either. Between the weather and the calechee (or however you spell that white crap that is on our driveway and in the park), I don't stand a chance. And then there is the inside...

I seen a worse truck today! I was on my way to school and this big ol dually pulls out in front of me. I was like wow, that person needs to wash their truck I think it was white. It looked tan from the grime and dirty, and black around the bottom of the tailgate. Well it really was blue as I could see when the man turned and there were a few hand prints on the side that clearly revealed it's true colour. Suddenly I dont feel so bad about the back road dirt and parking papers on the floor of the passenger side in my car.

So we both had twin posts today! Lol
I would always look like the truck if I lived on a dirt road!
No, dirt roads are not for me, I need a little blacktop county road for me! Our little Corvette couldn't stand a little dirt road, but my Jeep wouldn't be a sissy or the 2 trucks, just the little baby Corvette!

Funny! A good laugh....I don't see too many citation reports that say (yea lady "put the twins on the sill" -- "looks good, let her go"! Ha Ha! Let us know if that works! Have a great friday!

Dusty Devoe said...

You are so funny! I'm pretty spoiled. Cowboy runs my car through the car wash when it needs it.

You crack me up!

The twins may get two tickets, be careful.

I live 'in town' and my truck gets washed about once a year. I think it's a waste of water to wash a truck. Quarterly I open both doors and blow the whole thing out with the leaf blower. If I'm feeling really ambitious I wash the dog nose prints off the inside of the windows and vacuumn the floor mats. But thats only cuz I'm avoiding cleaning the bathroom:)

We had a dust storm thru here yesterday, and then it rained with it, so now my silver car is about the same color as yours... except streaky.
Let me know if the "twins on the sill" thing works, because I might have to go buy me some chicken fillets!

Paula said...

Funny! I'm incognito right now. Blue is now brown!

Okay, so I am slow, but I just got the "twins" thing. Of course, now I am really laughing hysterically. I am impressed that you can rest yours on the window sill!

Lil Mama said...

Good luck with the "twins thing" what if the p.o isn't into "twins" Then your in big trouble. Thats ok. Maybe it would work on the judge.

Unless you have four-wheeling mud caked to the windows I think you're good. You have a way to go. Besides, a dirty ranch truck says, "Don't mess with me. I'm probably packin'!"

Plain Jane said...

My truck usually looks the same! I don't about the twins, but if it works be sure to let us all know! Thanks for the laugh!
