Washboard roads ?? Take a quick trip into northern Canada..
Used motor oil ?? Its what we put on the rear lot for years,, for 50 anyway.. The front new and used lots were black top..
Speaking of motor oil.. One of the local beaches has been closed for the remainder of the season due to some strange black goopy substance washing onto the shoreline.. I went to look at and mentioned it sure looked to me like crude oil.. They thought I was nutz.. They just found out it was motor oil from the 20s/30s that was put into drums and dumped in the lake..
