Some of you will find this interesting.
It's cars. I have said this for years. I can't wear a hat in the car because it doesn't fit. It's a total pain in the neck.

I have issues with the top of my head brushing the headliner on most normal people cars, even with the seat fully lowered(sadly for the taller folks like me, most seats do not have this capability). I can imagine if I was the hat wearing type, this would be problematic. For a time my wife had one of the first gen "New" VW Beetles, and I swear that is the only car I ever felt had more than enough headroom. I could have worn a top hat in that car.

It's never a good idea to mess with any man carrying not one, but two Model 29s.

When I get a car, the headroom check is one of those "must haves." This eliminates a lot of cars. I drive a lot, and I need leg room too.

Just got around to watching this. Excellent video! I've loved hats since I was a kid. Thanks for sharing B.
I wonder if "blame Wildcat" will become a theme here? - Fr_Tom

I think Pip posted this. I don't think I did. It's not something I would have sought out on my own. No need.
