Mike's New Toy

On Sunday - we went out for breakfast and a brief clothes shopping. After which, Mike suggested that we go LOOK at trucks again because there were new deals being offered by the dealers. I had my suspicions as 6 years ago he made a similar suggestion and we ended up buying our Pathfinder. I was right. Before the end of the day, we ended up buying this. It is just like Dama and Grandpa O's big truck, except it is in Mike's favorite color - Badger Red and it seats 6. It will have to last a very long time though as we will not be buying any other new cars in the near future. I thought that the Pathfinder was big - this thing dwarfs it by miles. We had to do some re-arranging just to get it into the garage. Patrick was very excited because the truck was just like Grandpa's and was a real trooper waiting to finalize the purchase at the dealership. Now we have to get a tow attachment to take this camping. This was the perfect purchase in light of the nation-wide gas crisis!
