A Tree-Hugger Forsakes his Volvo for a Big White Pickup Truck

What owner's manuals don't tell you


The Ford F-150 4x4 owner's manual doesn't say anything about rain or snow that accumulates in the bed of the truck. Are there drain holes? Does it evaporate? Ought I shovel it? Or just leave it alone?

At least the truck comes with an owner's manual. Babies don't. I was hanging out with my friends Andy and Dobbie and their two young children -- both under 2 years. They were laughing about having to wing it as parents. Said the hospital hands you this baby, you tuck it under your arm, and you head home. Then you look at it and try to figure out what to do with it. No owners's manual, no nothing.
