So I used the Tikey truck for the first real ride yesterday to pick up a bookcase and Cabinet I won at a Govt auction. Ok kind of on edge, pretty good ride 30 each way and get on 322 which is a 55mph two lane road. Ok everything is fine, edge coming off right. I have not used it in a few months and all of a sudden a freaking mouse crawls up my pants leg! Man I almost crashed! :rofl::rofl:

It could have been a snake!
 
got that fun ride, just once, and it was only a training mission but yeah, never again.

We had observation windows on ours, larger near the front to scan for survivors on the ocean. Also a bubble that would go into the middle hatch on top. Rode in that a few times pretty wild. The scariest non emergency ride I did was in Brazil, low level about 100' AGL with the rear ramp open. Instant vertigo for all in the back you see the land turning and you feel level in the plane. Like a vomit comet, you can never get used to looking out the open ramp.

we did map of the earth, combat conditions flying in Blackhawks once, wildest roller coaster ride ever. I somehow managed to keep the puke down, but it was hard. 30 feet off the deck, up and down over trees, powerlines, rivers etc. No clue how fast we were going. but they had to pressure wash out the thing when we got back.

I like the rides in thoise the best. Top speed is 180 knots if it has the 701 engines, 160 with the 700, not sure what the army uses.

You never rode with me in my little Cessna 150.....I got my instructor fired!

I see my local municipality did a little cleanup of the ditch in front of my house yesterday. My buddy is the foreman, had them stop and fix the ruts the grader left in spring. I couldnt mow it.
Excavator operator is 22, female and is the best operator. Foreman says he has never seen anyone learn and figure out a machine so quick.

Good Morning Coffee Crew. Got my lug nuts in the mail yesterday. So I put my Centerlines on front. Looks nice, unfortunately too much crap in the way to get it outside to get a nice picture.
