    Loved the power wagons. Wish I had one. It is also easy to relate to grandpa's addiction, my wife will attest to that.
    Give back more to this world than we take.

    Learned the hard way not to try to climb these. You will sink up to your axles. Needed a winch to escape before the authorities arrived.
