Awesome truck! There's just something inherently fun about driving an old vehicle around, I've been daily driving my 1969 Plymouth Satellite station wagon this summer and it's a blast! Makes even the most mundane chores interesting and its always fun to hear stories from strangers who remember seeing them back in the day or knew someone that had one, you don't get to experience stuff like that if you drive a Camry haha

Nigel, you need to have a buddy ride along and help you with all that shoveling. That’s quite a bit of work for 1 guy. I’ve got a hyper active buddy that helps me with my projects. He talks allot and drinks allot of my beer. But he is excellent help.👍

Trick i learned from another gardener is when you have multiple drops use multiple tarps and you can pull each smaller load off a lot easier then a large load and risk ripping your tarp. P.S. everyone needs an old work truck like that.

Hi Nigel, as much as I like watching your channel there seems to be a few things that are blazingly obvious to me that perhaps you have overlooked. First let's bring up that you just had your 58th birthday and you have a teenage son, next I'd like to point out you have a crew cab truck for use at the community garden and there's only you in the truck and only you filling the truck... Are you seeing what I'm seeing......? I think you could use your people skills to your advantage while still offering physical resources to build community. Just my 2 cents....
