I drive my Thing to work when the weather is dry and bright.

It's been that way for going on two weeks now.

Tonight, after work, I stopped by the local brewery (location to remain unknown... essential in a boom town).

Mid way trough my second ESB, I was presented with a blue boa and told I deserved it for what I drove, my '73 Thing.

The only way to lose it was to be complimented and kissed my someone.

Happily that happened not too long after wearing the Boa.

I drove my Thing home. Happily.

When I drive my Thing around town, all I get are bug splats... Maybe the bugs just want to get a closer look? Unlike the general populace that only care about trucks and cameros!

Alas, we all have our crosses to bear. Cool

My Thing is Olive Drab (Military Green) so the looks I get are different than those of you with "Pumpkin Orange" and that one yellow color.

Naw, gave up that for the Tiger Orange. Very Happy

I hadn't thought that you olive drab lot would be treated different. Do people assume you've got a .50 cal stowed in the boot or something?
