Funny story that just happened. So my wife and I drove this beater to dinner tonight. Pretty upscale place so we were fixed up and going to roll in there looking like Sanford & Son. I had just opened up both fresh air vents earlier today. I had no idea what all was in there and I now think they had never been opened before. As soon as we got up to about 40MPH I guess there was enough air flow pressure that is blew througha ton of dirt, leaves, rat nests, and everything else you could think off all at once. It filled up the whole cab with debris blowing like a tornado as we had the windows down.

That's funny!
Was there valet parking? I would love to have seen the guys face when you rolled up in the truck! big_eek
