Hey Rick; that sounds like Mickey Mouse engineering to me. And if anybody knows Mickey Mouse. Engineering it would be me. LOL.

[quote=Ricks 2006 SS;403771]Thats plenty of room. What I think your doing to make it hard on yourself is. Your watching both sides of the car. When you only have to watch your mirror.
I don't know how you got to be such a smarta** scary biker dude, but you're right. Again. I have been watching both sides of the car. I also back into the yard and turn around there, which worked really well until I backed into a hyrdrangea bush's branch and scratched the paint on the bumper. Now I'm more careful to make a tighter circle in the yard.
Mike, thanks for the 16" info. I found my calculator (hiding in my husband's pocket) and did the math all by myself. Turns out 88 take away 72 is 16. When I'm out there trying to maneuver the car past the chimney, it seems more like 6". Rick had a good idea though, about watching only one side of the car.

Good Morning all, Have a blog hangover from last night. Slept in a little today. Wife is off and she took Hunter to school. I have been to the Post office and shipped packages to Mel and Mike. Guys, expect a Saturday delivery. Mel is getting a crockpot and Mike is getting a new pair of shoes. At least thats what it looks like on the outside. Don't get too excited guys. We are off to the grocery store. No white stuff here yet, but its on the way. 2-4" expected between now and tomorrow.
