Learned how to drive in a '77 Ford F250 XLT 4X4 with a huge Wagner Power Angle plow hanging off the front end. In the winter. Snow on the ground. Very small side streets with cars on both sides, ice rutted, at night. I guess dad wanted me to get to judge distance REAL QUICK. Scared the crap outta me but never hit anything. Took my test in a '75 Ford Ranchero GT. Needless to say, I got to plow snow for $$ that year! Pretty damn good at it for a kid. I wound up with that truck a my daily driver back then. I bought the Ranchero in '79, sold her in '81 when I moved to Cali.
