    On the the other hand, if you were building a nice bespoke rack for your McCormick spice bottles, you could repurpose the grille badge(s).

  • We cannot eat a damn "HAMBURGER" without an idiot complaining!

    You are probably eating your burger incorrectly, according to etiquette coach
    sf5czi313bdk.png
    Etiquette coach William Hanson, known for his crisp manners and no-nonsense advice, says most people are eating burgers wrong.

    r9bcnqrsvkd3.png
    “No one can fit anything into their mouth that is that big unless they are in the circus,” he says to the camera. He then removes the top bun and any excess toppings, places them aside, and cuts into the burger with a knife and fork. He suggests this is the right way to eat a burger ‘piece by piece’.
    Get that s**t eating grin off your face!

    That must be the reason cars and trucks went mainly to front-wheel drive?

    FWIW, I was thinking almost the same thing -- but, given the truck, more like four wheel drive. B)

    I missed it earlier, but that is NOT a Ford. That is a GMC.

    Hmmm; I could've sworn it was an F250. :)
