Reader drewski kindly sent me a photo:
It’s not my truck, but it is awesome!
Tippers are more attractive to the opposite sex and their chainsaws always start on the first pull. The links are below. Thanks.

Ozymandias
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
“Coimhéad fearg fhear na foighde”
Beware of the anger of a patient man.
I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself.
In a room where people unanimously maintain a conspiracy of silence, one word of truth sounds like a pistol shot.
It was extra curmudgeonly – being that the dmv (dept motor vehicles) was next door.
Thanks for all the tales.
Glad you like the tales. I haven’t had a vanity plate in decades but maybe I need to consider it again.
CUCV, if I’m not mistaken. I want one!
Nah, just a mid-90s GMC plow truck.
They sure don’t use much salt there, or that has always been a plow truck and never on the roads. That theory is shot down by the quick-connect system from Fischer or similar installed, there is snow on the ground and the plow is not mounted. That leaves the lack of salt whitewash on the pavement showing there isn’t much salt used there and why the Upper Midwest Rust Moths haven’t eaten this truck yet.
I guess you have’nt been to the Northeast much, eh?
