2009.09.03 - Picking up a new (to me) truck
< Back to Currently
                 

The Jeep was nice, but it wasn't really a feasible 2nd vehicle, so after some discussion and searching, I picked up a F150... its not fancy or anything, but it suits me very well, is comfortable to drive, and has room for the little guy in the back... plus, it'll haul stuff.

The Seat
Even though I was paying cash for it, I had to wait for them to do 'safety checks' on it... I made the guy who drove me there late. If I'd have known it was going to take that long, I'd have walked


An old car
Parked in the maintence bay was an old Model 'A' Ford...


Good shape
According to the guy selling me the F150, this car was one of the first vehicles sold by the dealership, then was given back to them when the folks who bought it passed on. It was in for an oil change.


Final checks
They let us in the back to pick up the truck. I got there as they were finishing the safety checks.


Getting Gas
You'd think they'd spring for a tank of gas! They didn't, so I gassed up and headed for home. I really like the truck... seems I made a good choice
