Even though Les is being a lazy jerk, as somebody who legitimately does have back issues (thanks to a birth defect in my lower spine), I can at least attest to the fact that heavy lifting is the last thing he needs to be doing (that is assuming he really does have back issues). But either way, seeing Tiff driving a truck should be quite a sight.
Main thing one has to remember in a longish van is, you are pretty much well sitting almost halfway over the front axle and engine, so you start your turns just a little bit later than a car where you sit further back from the front axle. My mother in law once borrowed a friend’s Chevy van, and when she was pulling out of the driveway of the house she was moving out of, she started her turn where she normally would in relation to where she is sitting in a vehicle, and damaged both of the passenger side cargo doors (halfway back), and took out the split – rail fence post. Cost her $2,200 to have the van repaired as the person she borrowed it from did not have it insured. And it cost her for the fence post on the rental house. Funny thing is, I had just told her to pull out a little further before executing her turn as she was leaving. Oh, well, she never listened to any of her 9 husbands, either.
Wow, a well-deserved verbal lashing from our resident shy guy. I didn’t know he had it in him. Bet’s influence probably. Or Les is just special in that regard. Living with people does tend to have that effect
I’m the only one here who knows how to handle…(a stick shift)"? Seriously, manual transmissions are considered these days to be an “anti theft device”.
I learned on a stick shift, a 1953 used Packard, not a Porsche (my first car was A 1949 semi-automatic Dodge) but learning to operate shift is very useful and unusual for most Gen Zoomers, or even Millennials or Gen X., so Tiffany has surprising talets, yet anothe example of an unexpected MISDIRECTION PLAY. Sorry to capitalize but it’s necessary to highlight my expression for unexpected developments. Hey Les might have a bad back, NAH!!
I drive a ’97 Ford F150 4WD Manual. Also a 2002 Mazda Protege ES Manual. First car was a 1969 AM Rebel Station Wagon, “3 on the Tree” with a Manual overdrive!
It would be great to have tomorrow’s strip show the truck driving away and Steffi sitting amongst all her crap, oops sorry – I mean boxes – on the side of the road LOL!
If Les has back issues, how is it that he works washing dishes? You want something that can cause back issues, try washing dishes for a couple of hundred people-KP was a thing that everyone went thru back in the day. I did a week washing dishes for 240 men before my tech school started in 1968
The odds that the truck has stick shift in this day and age are pretty slim. Even a lot of semi trucks are automatic these days. Any rental truck you would get would be automatic.
Tiffany Teamster and Oxford fill the truck cab and demonstrate that Leslie Knox is still mostly useless and unneeded. “Back issues,” you know. Yeah, right….

Impressive, Tiffany! She can drive a Porsche AND a big moving truck!
Les has been humiliated (as he deserves). If he had back problems.. he should have mentioned that ealier.
And who knew Greg owned a moving van business, too? LOL

He’s here to collect his share of the moving money, Gunth.
And YOU might want to ride “shotgun” and observe Tiff’s truck driving technique closely.
After all, you’ll be needing that truck later to move Bets’ stuff to the mansion.

When moving a friend we discovered that U-Haul will rent you a 26’ truck, and not even ask you if you’ve ever driven one before.
It was a learning experience.
Since then, I give moving trucks a very wide berth.
