I got 18 right....time to go back to school!! :shock: :shock: my teacher always warned me about going back and changing my answers....i would have had more right if i had just left well enough alone :roll: :roll:

 

[ranchwife]

i can't believe this....the 15 year old "i know it all" just got 20 right...no help to the cowboy who could not remember how many buns were in a pack!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Silver]

well I got 8 wrong... but in Canada there are 12 buns in a bag, just enough to cover a bag of hotdogs. And cars now have 4 lugnuts (the vast majority).... but I'm not sour or anything :wink:

But I did remember Bashful... pretty proud of that accomplishment

Great test though, really makes you use the ole noodle.

(American Cars & ½ ton Pick-up Trucks = ( 6 ) - Foreign Cars = ( 4 ) – ¾ ton Pick-m-ups = ( 8 ) – One Ton Pick-ups (?) –( 8 ) Big Ones???
