Sounds like she has all the bells and whistles, so much fun for you. Have always liked silver around here as it does hide dirt better than a lot of colors.

Have fun with your new baby!!


Thanks Vickie! Yeah, I've noticed a LOT of silver cars around here, now I know why!

CONGRATULATIONS, Sharon! She's a beauty! I can't wait to see what name you come up with when you bond with this new sidekick!

While contemplating your new name, I have decided to dub my truck the Lone Ranger, and my trailer will now be referred to as Tonto, the tagalong sidekick! It's taken me a long time to feel enough attached to both my road vehicles to come up with names for them both. When we were little, we neighborhood kids always played cowboys and Indians in whatever fields we could find to "gallop' around, cap guns smoking, and all. I was always wanting to be Tonto, who seemed to have more wild living smarts than the Lone Ranger star!

What a great find for you! I sure do wish I were going to meet you in FL this year?

Love it! You didn't mention in Ark you were looking for a new car, that could have been another "field trip" for us! I have a silver car, now that I think about it it really doesn't show dirt much. An added benefit! Wendy

I was thinking the same thing Wendy. lol She could have gotten a lot of help. My van is white and doesn't show dirt too much but don't buy a navy blue car. My son didn't want to wait for a white car to come in and took the blue. It is really cute with all the cat prints all over.

Hope you can get it ready to tow so you can get back on the road. This has really been an adventure for you this year.

They were giving away a truck at the casino. Maybe we could have won one for you. Of course it is hard to win if you don't play. I can't even win a cake at a cake bingo.
