In another part of the country, waaaay far away from the hustle and bustle of San Fran, sits O-hi-o, aka the Heartland.
There are no subways here in this wee college town of 8,000 people (when/if we all show up). You get to where you need to go by bike or car or feet. And when you leave the “city” limits… oh my. Nothing but soy and corn and wheat for miles.
So here is my contribution, a counterbalance to the cosmopolitan and the bright lights and the big city. This sign sits on the outskirts of town, visible in your rear view mirror as you head outbound.
Ah Shelvy. She’s our go-to gal here in Ford Country for all of those questions about heavy duty trucks: how much of a payload can my Ford F-150 shoulder? How will I know if I need to move up to Super-Duty? Shelvy can use terms like “hemi” and “trailering” and “power folded heated signal mirrors with puddle lamps” without a twitch. When I think massive 5.4 Litre V8 engines and mega-torque pick-up trucks…I always think Shelvy.
Wouldn’t you?
And did you know she’s selling?
Pity that she also appears to be, er, radioactive as well.
