"Peak season' was contractually from Thanksgiving to Christmas. And You only had 10 hour days 3 weeks in December, easing up before Christmas. Christmas eve day was 4 hours long and you were paid for 8.

I had an old p800 with a Ford inline 6
Had to go about 50 miles to my first stop.
Middle of February heading straight into a strong north wind
Up a steady incline. Had it floored the whole way could only get up to about 45 mph
Heard a loud bang then a loud knock had to go about a half mile to pull over into a driveway
Opens hood connecting rod sticking through side of the block
And 4 quarts of oil all over somebodies driveway nobody home walked another mile (damn near froze)to a house that somebody was home used their phone. Took about 2 hours to bring me another ride
Fun times got my 12 hours that day

In the early days, bicycles were used.
At one time as well, I believe motorcycles were used.

Yep.
Backing without a camera.
Using an actual key for the bulkhead door instead of standing in front of it like an idiot playing with a plastic pos hoping the door will open.
Using a map book.
Power steering provided by biceps.
Turning the ignition off, flooring the gas, turning ignition back on, shooting 3 foot flame from the tailpipe.
I 'member.
