It was the least expensive of all the ones we looked at by far. It was $600, with a 302 V8, a cracked windshield and a bed you could see through. It was half as much as the next expensive truck we were looking at, but considering that it will JUST be used to clean up trees and branches and move stuff, it was a steal. We have already spent at least that much renting things to move things too big for our cars in the last six months.

But it is more than that. This gives us a “man-project” to do together. Scotty loves it (good). Ben calls it “his” truck, since he is the ONLY one without a vehicle (bad). Steph calls it “adorable,” (definitely bad) and Amanda says it reminds her of her grandpa’s truck (possibly good but could be a trap). But for me, it is where I come from what we call a TRUCK. And I am thankful for it (good).

Honestly, I am a truck guy, and I feel like a man again!!!

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
