I Love vehicles.....

I Hate vehicles....

whats wrong with me...

just went thru the "process".. had to replace the wifes ride..( 8 good years with the last one)

it's still traumatic, after all these years and times of "doing it"....

think i did OK... but.. ya know ya could alwasy do better..

been a ruff past few days with the old one, and the "process"...

new one in the driveway....

feel happy and violated at the same time....

should go fish.... hearts not into it right now & thewinds outta the NE, & i'm too wore out...choke down some grub and hit the hay..meybe do dawn patrol.......

good news is my check engine light in the truck shut itself off...

bad news is.. the new payment book will be coming in the mail soon

but they mess with your mind... sometimes

the van i'm lately thrashing ....as if it was a pickup truck

i hauled a cord of logs in it yesterday

seemed to develope a wheel problem last week

and i thought:
thats strange i had all four brakes done.. recently...

so i go to jack it up to take the wheel off and the lug
nuts are not even "one hand tight..." one is broken off

and out of the four left ....just one took a good umfff to break loose.
man was i bull%$%$%$%$ at seeing that...

here i was.... moving tonage of equipment (belongings)
and i had trusted the shop guys to use their air rachets
but they obviously screwed it all up....

so what did you buy her?

[Karl F]

a lil' red wagon.....

a double leftover, in a way
( this was inventoried out of another dealer that had gone bankrupt late last year, Ford is now distrubuting the inventory, that they finally got back, well below the stickered prices)...



an 06 Mercury Mountaineer, with 62 miles on it.

traded in the 97 Expedition with 130+K on it.
