Ok here is your visual picture of the day and its a true story/ I have many friends whom will attest to it. Back in 1989 The Radisson at The Airport (in Columbus) held a contest. They had filled a beautiful,fully reconditioned 1970 red MG convertible with Cherry Coke (liters, cans, bottles-front to back, trunk, all in the car) . Whomever guessed the closest amount in ounces,would win the car. I correctly guessed the EXACT amount. I won the car and went to drive it home and it was like a Fred Flintstone cartoon. I got in,put the top down, ripped a pair of Dockers getting in ( which wouldnt be the only pair). It felt like my feet were against the front headlights and pushing out the grill out. When I was driving on the road, my forehead stuck up about 3 or 4 inches above the windshield so bugs were hitting me on the forehead and getting all in my hair( And yes I had hair back then-a lot actually) I owned the car about 3 years and only drove it 4 times, which is in Docker years. I gladly sold it to someone who could actually drive it. A 55 130lbs friend. So I made out ok, less the expense for 5 pairs of pants and a shirt, all torn while getting in and out of car. Also the time it took to get the dead bugs off my forehead and out of my hair. All in all, a good experience.
