I've seen trails of nails leaving such sites.

When anyone on my street gets new siding or shingles on their house,
it's best to stay way on the other side of the street for a few weeks..

It's not a screw that's drilled into a car's plastic or metal that worries me,
it's the pickup truck with 20 pounds of loose nails, that are falling off
the tailgate as the truck makes a run to get donuts & coffee..

Just the same, I'm going to try using pop-rivets on my next car mod..


work trucks,,,true stay away ...or have 6 ply tires
