Problem for me with this sorta thing, is I generally don't care what anyone thinks about me, even less so if they have complaints.
-Size of engine on the street?
I have a 390 in my truck and a 447 in my car
-How many street cars/trucks do you own and drive?
My daily driver is a 76 F100 and my car is a 63.5 Galaxie
Make year and engine size of your driver?
76, 390, because that is how they made them. If I ever rebuild it or need a replacement it'll probably be a very tame 445, just cuz.
-Social clubs like car club, facebook ect.
I'm gone 6-9 months a year, so I do facebook to keep up with people. Otherwise it's very easy to lose touch. Recently I've started using FB to detail my work with various engine related things.
Carry a knife?
-I go through a lot of airports, so not always at home. At work, it's a safety issue due to the maritime environment..... not having a good flashlight and knife would be a problem.
Carry a gun?
-I don't really feel like shooting anyone. I used to have guns around more, but I was a farmer. I was never insecure or scared enough to require carrying a gun on my body.
Social preferences: drifter, loner, or surrounded by family and friends?
-Given the option I'd rather stay in the shop and perfect whatever weirdness strikes my fancy. Keeping in contact with a few people that share the interest is nice.
Job preferences: work with others, or prefer not to hear or see anyone while working?
-Depends on the person.... I've worked with many that can fall into order with me, we can work seamlessly together. If the question is "Do you want to work with annoying people." I'd answer, "no"
Drive fast, slow or speed limit?
-I drive like most people, the speed limit or a lil over.
Steer clear of trouble, start it or turn away to avoid a situation?
-Depends on the folks I'm with. With close friends, I'm certainly a prankster, otherwise I'd just as soon avoid most people.
Is your tool box efficient, too small or bigger than what you really need?
-I don't own many tools, but I own very specific tools for what I do. I put things back when I'm done using them.
Do you have a measure of satisfaction with what you have or could you always get more?
-I think anyone that creates things will always strive for perfection, which I consider unattainable.
Ever been fast enough or too fast?
-Kinda a trick question, there is a difference between too fast, vs out of control. I've never been too fast, but I have been out of control.
This whole line of questioning hints around a prethought out conclusion and so it feels mildly dishonest. I would say, just ask the real damn question and lets get it over with..... but I clocked out early tonight, so what the heck, right?
