The Truck

Well, even though it was inspected before T bought it, it had problems that were undetectable. Engine problems that no one could really pinpoint exactly. T knew he wanted to get rid of it, was drinking gas and dirtying oil like no one's business - T and the truck, just kidding. He had already put new tires, shocks, a bad ass hitch and other things on for towing but that isn't the point of this post.

The point is, he's such a good man. The thought crossed our minds, we could sell it knowing something is wrong, the thought crossed quickly and was out of there. We knew we lost a lot of money and we don't have it to lose but T put a craigslist ad up, explaining that we don't know what's wrong but something is and it might need a new engine. People answered not even reading the whole ad and Todd told them "it could need a new engine". It wasn't looking good and then someone replied "I had the same truck, loved it, wrecked it, saved the engine, I have the engine for it! Would like to talk about the trade you mentioned, I have a Suburban"! Oh my
gosh, just what T wanted!

The truck traded was so cool but rough ridin' for me. We drove only a couple of hours and my back was stiff. The young man who traded was perfect for it. In his twenties, I'm sure he will enjoy four weeelin' in it!

We were redneck royalty for a minute and loved it!

And since it was an even trade we don't have to pay taxes again, just the 15 bucks or so to transfer the title.
