So this is Christmas...

Went and cut my own this year and finally got to do something I have wanted to do for years! I have had one strapped to the Roadie before, but never in daylight Hauled it home the way it was meant to be, on top of a woody wagon. There was also a white woody at the farm too, someone else had the same idea.

Wait, there's two on there?!

3 wagons hanging out

Awesome!

When I first got my wagon and I was cleaning it out, there was a chit ton of pine needles in the crevices of the 3rd seat area. Must have been the tree hauler for 17 years.

And so this is Christmas, and what have you done?

A tree my back can handle!!! As I said it has to be skinny to fit in the hallway. I did not want the chain saw stinking up my hunting clothes (inside)... A redneck concern for sure.

Great pics!!

This thread needs this photo:

Sometime when the CTS-V wagon is the same age as my OCC,I will be too damn old to remember
why I wanted one!

AND THE MORON STRAPPED A TREE DIRECTLY TO THE TOP WITH ROPE RUNNING THROUGH THE CAR!!!!! BE STILL MY OCD!!!!!

OK, I get to add one to the collection. I hauled a tree on Sunday... (cruddy cell phone pic.)



And wouldn't you know it, a cop jumped on my tail as soon as I pulled out of the tree lot. He "drafted" off me for the next three miles following me all the way into the subdivision to the very last stop sign some 50 yards from the house. Guess I looked really suspicious!

A white station wagon with a tree on the roof. He must have thought you were in a gang....

I use the same tree every year

Has it got any needles left on it??

Right on Pat.We used the same tree for 20 years.Bought it for my parents at Sears when they
first came out.Weighed more than a real tree but it sure was beautiful when decorated.My next
door neighbors came over 1 year and he was a little drunk,said the tree needed watering and
that became a regular christmas joke here.Real trees are great but too much work and I would
rather let them grow.

Back when we lived where trees were so cheap an artificial one would have been silly, we'd get trees slightly longer than the one above, and haul them home in the wagon. With plenty of cardboard to shield the seats and carpets etc., but with the hatch closed. (I wonder if I ever took a picture. Probably not.) Tree on the roof is what other people with Tahoes and other apparently too-small cars did.
