If you don't drive an outback, or have a starbucks latte in hand all times then you don't fit in.

My town gets a flood of Subaru driving latte sippers every summer but they all clear out and go home by the first week of Sept.

None of that in my town, but I saw plenty of it in Ca. It was good for a chuckle.

I can see the same thing here in Aspen. They love my muddy Jeep. (:)) I drive through Aspen to go to the Frying Pan to fly fish.

I love the looks you get. Like the OH MY GOD look. The best is when you just got a deer and theres blood running out of your bed . You would have thought you just killed someone.

I used to think it best to keep such things as bleeding elk carcasses out of sight by tarping them in the truck bed. But I now believe that shocking tree huggers with such graphic sights has no effect on the big picture. The tree huggers will always be against us and the home folks will always look at a dead elk and think of something good to eat.
Nobody's mind is ever going to be changed, one way or the other.

I do put them in my bed with the tailgate closed, but an early season deer bleeds like a stuck pig. I had this couple pull up next to me in the turn lane and they had this look on their face like I just escaped from a federal penitentiary. When I got home I realized there was blood dripping down my tailgate and off my bumper. It was humorous.

I was surprised with my elk this year. The antlers wouldn't fit in the bed of my truck because of the cap. So the head and antlers were on the tailgate. I got more thumbs up from fellow drivers then I've ever gotten before. Kind of shocked me.

Nothing compared to how we did it in the old days.

Thats is an awesome pic. Reminds me of a pic my day showed me when I was young. He had a really big body 4x4 tied on top of his datsun.

When me and my dad first started to come to Colorado to elk hunt from Calif. We had a 1953 GMC pickup with a straight six in it.

What a long drive that was in that truck.

Gives a whole new dimension to the term "meat wagon".

Is that the 4 wheel drive model they came out with that year?

Great bull!!! Sometimes it works out good that way.

Well I finally had my bull scored. Mr. King was the scorer. Didn't know until I met him that he helped score the spider bull. What a guy he had soooo many stories. We talked for quit awhile after he scored my bull. My bull scored 353 1/8. I was pretty impressed. He didn't make book but it really doesn't matter to me. He's awesome either way. Now I have an answer for everyone who asks me what did he score. Which kinda got annoying.

I resemble that remark!

In fact, I've driven an outback there since 1984, however I don't live within the city limits of BozAngeles .

350+ is definitely a bull of a lifetime IMO. Book or not...
