THAT is one great picture. It brought back some really good memories. I think the first time I saw that configuration, I asked Bud why he just didn't pull a trailer. His response was "The tolls are cheaper this way." Always the funny guy...............

Given all the media hype and propaganda about Pintos, one might surmise that if you had a boat trailer, and you backed up too fast and and ran into the trailer tongue with the rear bumper the Pinto might explode.;):D

The wagons were the worst. Dad had a little green pinto he played a bit with and if ANY model Pinto was going to explode, that is the one I would have suspected. Mom's wagon was the bad one. You would spend $6500.00 on a new vehicle and spen 12,000.00 over the next few years making sure you weren't going to be road kill. The wagon went away, and the little green coupe just got faster.....................

Dad, Now I know that when you talk about making a rack to hold some boats on the back of your truck or what ever your not just talking out your *** but you actually have some experience with it. Between you and Rod together I'm sure you've all built some crazy *** boat racks.

My wife sent me a picture of a Falcon in a tree, I thought of a Pinto with a couple of boats on top.
