This weeks Wednesday challenge:Â Cars and/or Trucks
 ***
I confused a few people by adding my own resonse to my challenge, so I'll be posting my response separately. Frankly, I'm clueless about cars and trucks, so for those that know me, expect wierd or different (I really like those words). Tell me, in any form you desire (most of my posts have no limitations) about cars and trucks. Picture essays, your first love affair in the back seat (please flag it if it's a bit racy), the truck with wings that fly (okay, maybe I'm showing my ... ummm .... can't think of the word), even your favorite truck stops. The only condition is that it has to be about cars and trucks.
 Ideas: I’ll be anxiously waiting to read your responses.
Suggestions: Sure, please send me challenges you’d like to see.
The Rules:
Keep in mind, this is a monitored group and there are only a couple of rules, which are:
Make sure you put this (WWE, 5/16/12, Cars and Trucks) in your title.
Be sure to tag it with WWE, Cars and/or Trucks, Gather Writing Essentials.
Post to Gather Writing Essential.
I ask that you make your submission(s) by next Tuesday afternoon.
There is a limit of three submissions from each member per day. If you’re extremely prolific, spread out your work and post only three submissions per day.
Most important:
Put this challenge statement at the beginning or end of your submission so readers will know what you’re supposed to do and won’t think you’re crazy.
Challenge:
Write in any form you desire about:Â Â Cars and TrucksÂ

Ha Ha (Laughing at my own funny.)
This is a hangover from a book I read and cried over in grade 7.
Thank you for sharing this with The Surreal Circus
On the trucks with wings I wonder if you might be referring to those big-rigs with giant chrome wind-foils atop the sleeper compartments?? In trucker lingo they were referred to as chicken-wings. Ernie_thunder britches Shill did a poem about them called "Chrome shop junkie".
The term developed when our "chicken-hauler" friends needed to get a load of freshly processed chicken from Tyson's main facilities in Arkansas to all points west.. north and east within just a couple of days. When your that big and trying to roll fast it pays to be noticeable as to avoid accidents so they started dressing up their rigs and trailers with are what now referred to as chicken lights.
Well the bug was born and there was no stopping the gents from making those trucks flashier and more noticeable... only problem is chrome takes a hell of a long time to shine. Lol
But, I had no clue about the chicken-wings. How fun. Chrome shop junkie, chicken lights? It sounds like you do a lot of chrome cleaning. Me, I haven't even cleaned my car since I bought it and I'm superstitious about that now.
OK, I'm ready for your meet to the challenge. If you think this took care of it, think again. I'm watching for your post. (Evil chirp).
Except for the factory standard grille I never added chrome to my truck, that's mostly owner/operators who have a little free-time and some extra spending money. I was a company driver so I'd get the truck cleaned but that was about it. I took more pride in how my truck performed over aesthetics (:
I'll try to get myself organized and get one going, here...
