Ah...the trusty wooden yard stick...you just don't see them up here anymore.

I got a kick off CNN coverage from Virginia last night. All I saw was half of 3/4 ton pickups plowing the streets. We use those for driveways or smaller parking lots.


Would that be 3/8 ton pickups? Who makes one of those?
