3 weeks ago, we took a road trip to Havre, Mt for a family event. 520 miles Round trip. took some work, - Reviews requiring my seal, because I knew I'd have some down time at the motel. Anyway I finish the work up and took it all out to the car, then went to the event.
Well, for the last 3 weeks, I've been looking for my seal. Sorted thru the car 2x, all my travel bags. coat pockets. couldn't find it and was about to order another one-

Yesterday, we were going out to the range, so I was putting a target stand on top of the cargo rack of the Forester. There is my seal, stuck in the corner of the rack.

It had ridden up there for 3 weeks including a couple of trips thru the car wash.
I was pleasantly suprised...:-) 🙂 🙂 🙂

Mr. File

How do you expect us to answer a technical question like that when you don't provide all the necessary data: Miles traveled since MT trip, daily weather conditions for last three weeks, type of car wash utilized, etc.

Drove 30 miles thru city traffic over a 6 hour period once with my cell phone stuck against the luggage rack on my jeep. I could hear the ringer when I called it but thought it was under a seat.

I was driving

north on I-75 one day and noticed a purse sitting on the bumper of a car as I passed. I slowed down and waved at the car and motioned to the rear. The eyes of the lady in the back seat got BIG and I could read her lips saying "MY PURSE".

I have driven about 8 miles to work with my coffee cup sitting on the rear bumper too.

Reminds me of a favorite line in Planes, Trains, Autos:

"You're going the wrong way"!!!

"She says we're going the wrong way".

"Must be drunk, how do they know where we're going".

A few years back, I took the kids and the cousins to a back-country lake. Stopped at the grocery store and got a few snacks. We all jumped in the 1958 Chevy Apache and drove 30 miles along a state highway, then 30 minutes up a steep, bumpy, rutted dirt road. Got out at the trailhead and there was a bag of groceries sitting on the step of the side bed. I thought I was pretty lucky with that one. JRL

There's two kinds of people....

Those who divide people into two groups, and those who don't.
