Re: Working Then & Today

I'd think a truck would become specialized-use once the straight pipes are run through the hood. Not something you'd do to your driver.

This is a cool truck thing to learn that I never knew about. Back East the super dry conditions of the west are rarely seen. But we do get droughts. I remember a field fire we started when I was a kid. We had a Ford AA flatbed. It backfired and that started the fire.

More recently at this house, we had a field fire in the area that got started by sparks from a bush hog blade hitting a rock.

I also learned all about spark arrestors on dirt bikes when I lived in CA
