Can you tell the difference between Gomer Pyle and Goober Pyle?

Can you tell these two Mayberry mechanics apart?

 
Gomer Pyle and Goober Pyle brought comic relief to Mayberry — and a little auto repair here and there. The related characters had a lot in common. Both of them worked at Wally's Filling Station. Both of them were deputized when Barney needed a hand. 

Still, they had their differences, from wardrobe to catchphrases to girlfriends. Can you tell them apart?

10/12 pretty good...I watched Mayberry RFD as a kid, and didn't really see many Andy Griffith episodes until years later...surprising how Goober evolved from a "special needs" adult to the relatively clever goofball from "RFD"

Disappointed when Goober's girlfriend Flora was dropped. Loved her on Andy Griffith and in Beach movies as 1 of Eric Von Zipper's biker babes. ♣
