    This man was a truck driver for most of his life and admits that he never wore sunscreen. It was not until his grandchildren asked him why his face looked different that he decided to see a doctor. So far the man has not presented any signs of skin cancer. You can definitely see that sun damage causes aging with wrinkles, skin laxity and sagging from damage to connective tissue such as collagen and elastin.

    Never said they did.

    We were discussing tinting on all vehicles.

    He just needs to head down to Australia & drive road trains for a few years....they drive on the wrong side of the truck, so it'll let the right side of his face get some sun & catch up to the left.:yes2557:

    Boo ### hoo. so a man has a few wrinkles. It used to be standard that men didn't care if they picked up a wrinkle or a scar.

    I don't think it is so much the wrinkles, but the fact it is only one side of his face. It just clearly shows the long lasting effects of the sun.. just think what those jersey shore ####### are going to look like down the road!

    I use the armbands from the following vendor.

    The Sun Sleeve

    I also use the neck protector.

    I have also had issues with my arms stinging and burning from prolonged sun exposure. All the above are DOT legal and can also be used while in your car.

    I also use Jim Maui Canoes for sunglasses. As I get older, i'm finding out that I don't have the same tolerances. :D
     
    Meltom Thanks this.
