From The Progressive Farmer


10) They have a range of about 20 miles before they overheat, break down
or run out of gas
*9) Only the owner knows how to operate the door to get in or out.
*8) It's difficult to find room to sit in the cab with all the tools,
grease rags, rope, etc.
*7) It takes too long to start, and the smoke coming up through the
rusted floorboards clouds your

vision.
*6) The dog on the toolbox looks mean.
*5) They're easy to spot - the driver's door is red, the passenger's
door green, the right front

fender is yellow, etc.
*4) The large round bale in the back makes it hard to see. The mirrors
would help if they weren't

covered in duct tape.
*3) Top speed is about 45 mph.
*2) Nobody wants a truck that needs u-joints, $3,000 worth of body work,
tail lights and a

windshield.
*1) It's hard to commit a crime with everyone waving at you.
