One advantage to wearing a fedora is to use it as an extension of your sunshade while driving. I don't know about big trucks, but in pickups and cars there are lots of times I tweak the brim down in front or on the side to block the sun when its hitting at an angle that my real sun visor does...
I don't normally go for 2 1/4 inch brims but I have been wanting an Adams Pacesetter or a Marathon with shark gills. Finally landed one, now I have something for stingy mas later this year. The color is really a blue green but it looks gray or gray green some of the time.

I think the Sand color is still being offered but I wanted the dark brown. I don't normally wear full blown westerns much, except for the old style teardrop open roads. I do have a couple of modern open roads with cattleman's crease. I think I am going to really like this Akubra western a lot...
Apparently Me Old Akubra Hat is a poem by John McCaskill. I found the link below to the poem but no other information.
