I’m visiting a rural part of the southern US, and I have noticed that about 2/3 of the houses outside the town have yards full of cars and tractors in various states of disrepair, as well as tons of other miscellaneous stuff. Why is that? Is it kind of a culture of self-reliance and a supply of spare parts? Some other reason?
8·1 day ago- It’s still in use, but perhaps seasonally or infrequently.
- It’s gonna get fixed just as soon as I have time.
- It’s got parts for the other one I have.
- Might be useful someday. It’s got parts, and the hardware store is 20 miles away.
- Scrap metal value.
- The dump is 20 miles away, gonna get a load built up and do a dump run with Jimmy, just as soon as his trailer gets fixed.
- The dump doesn’t take that thing.
- Redneck decor.
- The dump is closed
