Road hats
2 Attachment(s)
I don't usually pass up a good road hat when I see one while driving my truck. I turn back around a go get it, if it is safe to do so. I found one yesterday while hauling furniture in my 69 CST/10. Throw in the wash and next thing I have a good truck driving hat. They usually match the wear and tear of my truck. I keep some of the collection on my dash. Who else stops for road hats? If I'm the only one, well then I'm just certifiable. Bonus points if you accidentally run it over again with your 67-72 and then swing back and pick it up. My favorite is the Circle JA Custom Dirt Work/Paving hat.

Re: Road hats
I have enough Hats already without picking up more , I need to thin some out .

Re: Road hats
Just start throwing them out on the road. Somebody like me will pick them up.

Re: Road hats
I wish I could just give them away .

I'm like Flashed, I have too many hats now. I do pick up the nicer bungee straps though. If I see one on the way to town I will stop and pick it up on the way home. LockDoc |
Re: Road hats
Gotta say I have never picked up a hat....never even crossed my mind. I do pick up other things that catch my eye though.

Re: Road hats
Gas cans are my favorite.

Re: Road hats
I have picked up a few. A couple turned out to be brand new fitted baseball ones in my size even. If they are ok after a cleaning I add them to my workshop collection. If one gets really nasty, I toss it away and grab the next one in the box.

Re: Road hats
Sometimes I leg the Blazer out on I-95 & POOF!!.... there goes my hat. A few years ago I lost a favorite, my vintage 1995 GATORNATIONALS hat that way. Not worth dodging cars & trucks on foot trying to retrieve it, I'm old & gimpy.

Re: Road hats
I didn’t wear hats as a kid and don’t wear hats as grandpa. And maybe it’s just me, I for sure would never wear a road hat. But when ever I do see a road hat I definitely try my best to run it over hah!

Re: Road hats

Re: Road hats
I too need to thin out the pile of hats in the closet.

I didn't have a cap at the Carlisle truck show back in '08 and it was HOT!! My buddy left his GMC cap laying so I was good to go.
w/o cap: Attachment 1929493 W/cap (mo' betta): Attachment 1929494 I tend to get lice from time to time. The early sign is my head itches when I wear a hat. So driving down the road and my head starts itchin' I toss the hat! |
Re: Road hats
That's great! On behalf of road hat collectors everywhere, thank you! We'll just shake those buggers out and we're good to go.

Re: Road hats
That's what washing machines are for. Man, I have hats 30+ years old I probably haven't worn in over 25 years. I just like them still, but don't routinely wear a hat anyway. It's hard to sell a used hat it seems. Might as well toss out the window. See a used cap for sale at a flea market, "I ain't puttin' that on my head. Who knows where that's been?". Find one along the road and," Hey alright, a hat! Fits, too!!" :lol:

Re: Road hats

Re: Road hats
I've never found one. I've never found anything worth picking up for that matter. But I have a bunch of hats. Lots! I almost always wear a hat because my hair is long and it will blow in my face if I don't keep it under control.

Re: Road hats
Yeah, I keep a few in the truck for window down driving all through the warmer weather for that reason.
I was riding my Harley with my X when my welders cap blew off my head. It was a dual hwy going under the interstate. I did two u-turns either side to come back up on the cap, lowered my left foot, and scooped it back up to catch with my hand and stick back on my head. One of the few things I ever did that I recall her being impressed with. |
