As Close to the Grove, as You Can Get

Owning an orange truck + photoshop can equal things that are just wrong... [)]




It's not as bad as Jeff Rice's '37 though.

I still think it looks like the University of Texas color, "burnt orange". So, you could call it "Longhorn". The girls would be impressed.

If I lived in Texas...
But, then again, I don't live in Florida either.

Matthew,
California grows as many oranges (if not MORE) than Florida. But Florida's the state that made a name for itself as far as orange juice goes. For awhile out here, I worked at a commercial juicing plant and there was a constant stream of stainless steel tanker trucks that would pull up and fill with Cailfornia OJ and then take it to florida to blend with what they market. The variety of oranges they grow here are sweeter, by and large, than those grown in Fla., so they use our juice to adjust the sweetness of what they market as "Florida" orange juice.[}]
We see those Florida Orange Juice commercials out here too and it's always bugged me that since they featured an old truck in alot of their ads, why couldn't it have been a Studebaker? Nothing says "nostalgia" like a Studebaker!
Same way for that Hidden Valley salad dressing. Surely they could have found a nice, green 2R16 (or M16) to star in those spots!

Miscreant at large.

Seems like I've heard before that California produces more OJ than Florida. Florida's Natural just popped into my head first.
Kinda like GA peaches. There really aren't that many peach farms around here. [:0] It's more peanuts, cotton, and tobacco. [8]

I added this just now:


They'll either sue me or hire me. [8D]

What you should do is get some washable green paint and paint a stem and two leaves towards the outer edge of those orange hub caps. [:0] Man, with them being slightly convex, the illusion would be cool![8D]

Great minds think alike; I was thinking the same thing! [)]
How's this?
