well, aggravating cuss or not, I still say the story would have benefitted by tossing in a mountain lion or two. BTW, it's torque that moves your truck, and torque peaks in the flathead engine at 1600 rpm. If I said horsepower, pardon my error. I don't happen to have my doorpost handy. This "Great Power Wagon" event you refer to is not only impossible, but also foolhardy. There's no way you could steer, brake, or otherwise control a power wagon going that speed. I'm not even certain the doors would stay shut! Now, that said, I never called you a liar outright...I wouldn't do that. I just think you're a pretty good down home type story teller with a fair imagination and a poor speedometer. Hey, did I ever tell you the story about the time...aw, nevermind. Compared to yours, mine would be boring, even WITH the mountain lions.
Jack, putting his feet back up on the pot bellied stove, thinking we're going to have lots of them piston-crown ashtrays around here pretty soon...
