"A working-class boy falls for a girl from a wealthy family,
and must compete for her with a rich boy who also wants her." (IMDb)

This was a sympathetic romantic comedy directed by Richard T. Heffron (Futureworld etc.)
Gary Busey as Wes and Annette O'Toole as Susan did a great job in the leading roles.
John Calvin, Eddie Albert, Cloris Leachman, Tony Randall and Michael "Miami Vice" Talbott are the co-stars.
You can also see William H. Macy in a short but funny role in his second feature film.

Susan: "Why are you so sweaty?"
Wes: "I´m jogging"
Susan: "With your cowboy boots on?"
Wes: "These are Adidas cowboy boots from El Paso"

Nice Minnesota locations, cool characters and scenes.
I find these early 80s films much funnier than movies made today.

Here´s a fun scene from the beginning of the movie:

Foolin´ Around (1980) - Wesley in trouble again

Anyone seen this?

I recall semi-enjoying this. Largely due to the lovely Annette O'Toole...

Yes, it was hilarious! Crashing through the church windows! Great movie, would love to see that again.
