the TRUCK

It has finally happened.  Adam has purchased his dream truck (or at least one of the hundreds of dream trucks).  It's a beauty, and we all love it. Jack seems extra proud of the truck and played a pretty big roll in the purchase of it.  He nagged me almost as much as Adam. Telling me how he Loooooved the BIG truck. And asking when we would BUY the truck.  Of course I loved having no car payments... but what fun is life without a car payment? That's neither here nor there.  (not sure that saying fits here, but it seemed like a fun thing to say).
So now when we travel we travel in comfort, and style.  The cab of the truck is EXTRA roomy (so roomy I can sit between the car seats when needed). We can easily tow our fancy camper, or our wave runner, or any other item which Adam might feel like dragging behind us.  Surprisingly we are getting BETTER gas mileage than we were in our trailblazer, and the insurance barely went up at all!

We have big dreams for this truck.  We hope it will take us and our camper on great adventures. Up the mountains, thru the national parks, and maybe even the Grand Canyon.  Our kids will grow up, move out of their car seats, learn to drive in it... okay maybe that is pushing it. But Adam swore he loved it and would happily keep it for at least 7 years.  I need a lawyer to write this up in an official contract for me...


It's purrrrty :)
