I spent a fair amount of years laying out subdivisions, this was my crew, we used to cut line with the old Dodge when we could, it was 4x4 and was part of our line cutting arsenal. If the terrain was mostly briars and underbrush and would take forever to cut with brushook/machete we would sometimes elect to ram it with the Dodge Ram. It would beat them briar patches like they owed it money.
This is a good example of the type of terrain I worked in during my 20's, it was hardcore subdivision building, topos, tree location, boundaries, construction layout.
Good times..
It's all good times when you're young, B.L.
I remember recently reading about old Germans who were nostalgic about the 40's.
Not because they were Nazis, but because they were young.
I feel the same way about the 60's. Not because I was a hippie (well, o.k., I was; I used to smoke pot with Judson and I promised I'd never tell) but because I was young. We all miss (or will miss, pay attention, Roxie) being young.
Horny Goat Weed didn't come into play at all.
Sigh

Dude - You were driving through Horney Goat Weed in that Dodge Ram!
That explains a lot of things :-O
This is what we used in the Army. The venerable Gamma Goat. We did not cut a lot of line, but when we did we brought out the "Goat". It would allegedly swim. Never had the stones to try that move.
I'd love to get my hands on one of those. All that off road capability and they float to. Perfect survey rig.
