There's a spring under my front lawn, which keeps it soft. Every time the coal truck comes across the lawn, it leaves a couple of six-inch ruts, going and conning.

It meant no ruts. Just to make sure, we studied the land carefully, and the truck drove across it at the exact angle we wanted. No ruts.
