Default First drive of the year.

Well, finally after being on the road for work for 12 weeks I was able to finish some random projects on my car. So, since I was out there I decided to take some photos. Yeah, they're taken on a shitty iPhone, but oh well. Better then nothing.

Just pulling out of the garage. Next to my roommates car that just hit a deer.

Ha, here ya go.

Ok, just a heads up. This is just a car to make fun of all the dumb imports, he even has a little tiny spoiler on the rear of the car. That's why all the crap is on the car. He even has an old NES remote in the car, which starts the car. Turn the key, push the start button on the remote, and wammo, also the B button operates the windshield wipers.

Ok, notice the poo under the mirror.

Thanks guys. Maybe one of these days I'll be able to drive it for the second time this year. Being on the road for 28 straight weeks out of the year kind of puts a dent in time to drive the damn thing. Just over 500 miles last year, and about 10 miles this year. But, I love my job, and I get to travel all over the US, and fish.

Nah, I do mobile marketing/retail sales for Pure Fishing(Berkley, Abu Garcia, Fenwick, PFlueger, Penn, Mitchell, ect..). We have a 53' trailer and a truck and go to retailers and 3 bass tournies each year. We do educational seminars on line, bait, rod/reel selection, as well as inform the customers about new products for the year. It's a cool gig, and I get to do something I love to do, teach, and sell fun(IE fishing). Plus, I get to go fishing on some amazing waters while we're in certain locations.

Here's a link to some more details.


Some pictures of that:



And one of the truck.
