"4x4 in uppercase is $X$"

hahaha! Yeah, well at least I didn't have to pay AAA for the tow! It would have cost me $7.50/mile w/o AAA!

I had a very entertaining experience riding with the 56-going-on-78-year-old tow truck driver for the 100-mile trip, who not only finished 4 cigarettes in our 90 minute ride (Ack! Cough cough! ), but enlightened me with lots of history about the regions we passed through....

"See that fence line there? That used to be such-and-such ranch back in 1882. blahblahblah"
He was a character all right.
