A friend asked me to type this up and post it... it's kind of interesting... as it made me have a different view of my friend... but that's not the point. As it seems as if he's against trucks or something. (Oh and he's got a Tahoe sitting in his driveway!) I actually felt kind of offended when he was telling me this!!!

Just to get some feedback, thought I would ask you guys about something.

My next door neighbor has a Ford F-350 Super Duty Dually that he drives home from his construction job every night. The truck is usually filthy and parked in plain view from the street. I am on the neighborhood board and have gotten complaints from several neighbors regarding this vehicle. I don't like it either because my side porch faces his driveway and it frames this truck like a picture.

Our covenants state that anything above a 3/4 ton truck is not allowed to be parked overnight in any driveway. The president of the neighborhood drives his commercial vehcile (Ford F-350) home every night ( he lives in a cul-de-sac and his is not as visible) and it has one of the service beds (storage compartments). He is trying to tell us that it should be ok because that is his only option and how he pays for his home. I jokingly said to him that if I could run a scrap yard from my home I would be a lot wealthier. My neighborhood management company is telling me that they can't write my next door neighbor a letter because his truck does not exceed the covenant requirements and that she had talked with the president and he said there is nothing we can do about it. Can someone fill me in on what the difference is on the ton desiginations?

This has me really sore b/c the president and I are good friends and I feel like he is just covering his butt.

 

Find something else to worry about.. good guess is that your neighbors truck is how he is also paying the mortgage.. have you ever spoken to him, or is your first instinct to try and find a lawyer?.. "His truck is dirty.".. all I can say is.. WOW.. you must have a perfect life if that's all ya got to worry about.. Good luck with all that..

Maybe you could offer to wash his truck every evening? Detail it on Saturdays?

 

i am curious to see what this truck looks like

 

3/4 ton rule sounds like they didnt consider a pickup being a 1 ton. More like it was to discourage cub vans and vehicles of such.

Dont have that problem, nearest neighbor is 1/4 mile away and cant see them and they can see me.

Sled...

 

Mans gotta make a living and that truck is his livelyhood. I would rather have my vehicle parked in the relative safety close to my house, especially if I depended on it to pay the bills, than leave it somewhere else because of some paragraph. So what if his truck is dirty, he works a dirty job.

 

BTW, you neighborhood ***** are quite the upright citizens, aren't you?

"Your grass is 1/4" too high, by my measure."

"How dare you display an American flag on a non-designated holiday!"

"Your trash can was left in the street for more than 12 hours after the time it was emptied on 3 non-consecutive occasions!"

"Your truck is too dirty for my pleasure!"

Dude, go fishing, play some golf, smoke a joint, play a video game, get laid.. I know you think you're doing everyone a favor, but really everyone hates you for being an *******.. I'm sorry that West Point didn't learn ya how to get along with people..

 

And in that order,

I was thinking more...

Dude, go smoke a joint then get laid, then go fishing and smoke a few joints then come home get laid, smoke a joint play some golf, get laid and smoke another one, play a video game and toke on a bong, get laid then smoke another joint.

Life; it's a verb.
SO LIVE IT!!!

 

Man the more I think about this...... if you brought this to me, I would accept and I would wash my truck or park blocks away and walk home or whatever the heck you think you want him to do. Meanwhile my house would go on the market and as soon as it sold, then when I moved I'd drive right through your pretty little yard right after you watered it, maybe cut a doughnut or two making sure to plow any and all flower beds and young trees along the way.

 

And then smoke a joint and get laid.

Ahemm.. cough cough.. 'sup?

LOL!!.. but caint we all agree that Mr. ManualF150 should have better things to do than monitor the cleanliness of thy neighbors truck?

Remember, once you start checkin' how clean the neighbors truck is, well.. then the terrorists win.. ok..

after all, we can't all sit in a cubicle all day long pretending to do actuall work.. must be nice tho if it frees you up to get a hardon for a filthy truck next door..

 

Your darn skippy!!!!!

Might be doing both while plowing the yard!!!!

 

OK, Now I get it. He was asking a detailing question.

Yeah it was weird the way he asked, but he wants to know what is the best way to detail his neighbors dirty truck.

Just remember ManualF1fiddy, always use the 2 bucket system.


Sled...

 

You may want to adjust the mower height on that tractor.

Oh, and at least wait until day light to do it, mow or plow.

For now just smoke a joint and get laid, again.

Yea his sprinklers arent set to go off until 5:45 am sharp for the first zone, it will take it about 45 mins to an hour to thourghly soak the ground and get good penetration. So about 6:30 ish am should work nicely! Man I'd hope to hit a sprinkelr main!!!
