Old guy. Somewhat musical guy. Thespian. My Tevye made rabbis weep! I'm not a janitor but I've played one in an industrial film!
Was @etdweasel on The Former Bird Site…🤷‍♂️
How do you explain your SO that wanting to drive 1k to a wedding rather than Uber to the airport, lay over for 3 hours, fly to a 3rd airport, then renting a car for a 60 mile drive, only to do the reverse to get home is more of an “anti-airport” thing than a “car guy” thing?

Even in his most active years, we’re talking 5 shows a week (oddly, there seem to be instances where he doubled up a day or so a week); let’s say, 52 weeks; 260 shows a year. So, 19.23~ miles a show.

It’s a 28 minute show; the trolley runs a very short portion of that: ‘bout 30 seconds. How…? 🤷‍♂️

The as delivered Costco price is about a Happy Meal more than a base Chevy Expressway 2500.

Not a tough decision there.

This was exactly my thought! Only question I have is space underneath for various water tanks & such.

272 mile range absolutely works, particularly when you’re basically charging when you plug in at the camp site.

They’ve been using one here for local store delivery for more than a year now; predates the Chevy branding.

I always say the happiest day of my life was the day I sold my snow blower.

I’m startin’ to rethink that…🥵

People forget those tiny trucks were punching above their weight in their day, much as the Ford Maverick does now.

The percentage of Mavericks I see with an actual load in the bed, when compared to the average F-150, is seriously high.

I mean, they do ONE THING!!!

(Okay; two things…they’re currently obsessed with wiper blades.)
