    I only ever placed a foot on a fender once... Boss #### near had me scalped! I was young and dumb... Not only is it easier to get up to clean windshield and replace wipers with the hood open... You dont scratch the paint.

    I had to do something similar the other day. But I had to ask the other driver for some toilet paper, too. :rolleyes:

    If I were to ever want to be fired, that's exactly how I would do it, stand on the fender.

    While I agree with your point, he is on the tire not the fender.

    I hear a lot of things on the internet. Every now and again it's actually close to being true..

    Yes, I'm aware of that. Some of the others were talking about people who stand on the fenders, that is what I was referencing, not the guy in the pic, on the tire.
