Havent seen this here, the corvette guys always had a "drive your vette to work day" in june every year and posted pics of their cars at work. I drove the burb over to the field to bale hay but it wasnt quite dry enough to bale so I figured I might as well take a few pics while I was waiting.

isnt that everyday? it is for me! and i have noticed that out west they bale large square bales, unlike the round bales here, maybe you want the cows to have a square meal?

Cool!
FRANKENTRUCK is on-call everyday of the year. It can't really contain large bales in the bed, but it sure hauls everything else daily.

Besides myself, I have a '42 John Deere B and a '56 John Deere 420 that also work regularly to keep FRANKENTRUCK busy.

I also drive a square to work everyday.

Square body owners and Corvette owners will never be similar, with any luck.

Great thread guys! I used to daily an 84 K20 70 miles a day. Back when gas was affordable. :lol:

If I could drive mine to work I def would. But my 50miles to work would get expensive the first day.

Joe, awesome truck and that's cool you drive it every day! I'm guessing you don't have to drive far if your username and your scoop are for real? :lol:

Re: Annual drive your square to work day?
 
Thanks man! 2.5 miles to work. All back road with only 2 stop signs;). Cut out most of the out of town trips ever since the gas prices got out of hand. And it's for real. Here's what I was running.

Here's my new setup.

Awesome man! Was it hard to street the alky set up? (That's what I'm assuming it was)

Pump gas setup. Converted Enderle hat from BDS. Ran good but had problems with the ecu from day one. Come to find out it had a bad mother board. Ran 5 years with the efi. No more electronics for me.

When I pulled out my spot was taken by a '96 (ish) Impala SS.

Yep. Today too.

Except it was also a bonus "swing by and pick up some race fuel" day.

I tried to drive the diesel in yesterday, got a couple miles down the road and the volt gauge started flickering. Either have lost the alternator, one of the batteries, or more likely the glow plug controller is finally toast. I was gonna park in the lot with Keith and prove that I really do drive it to work some times... But that Vega might have taken my spot.

Mr. Seymore you have seen a lot. I've read your story. Amazing.

Be careful opening your door.

Thank you. Seems like I've forgotten a lot, too.
