I thought about starting a new thread…but since every thing kind of ties together on this hunt…I’ll just leave it here. So…insert funky time warp music here as we trip on back to early last summer.
I spent most of the summer driving Darleen absolutely nuts over trucks. You see, although I’m thankful to have transportation…hunting out the family sedan, a 95 Taurus, was getting a little tough. I haven’t had a truck for 8-9 years. Every time I started saving money to buy a truck, something more important would come up. And when I really needed a truck to get where I wanted to go…like elk camp…my brother would come along or loan me his truck. Anyway, thanks to an employee stock purchase plan, I managed to save up about $5K and I decided that THIS year, I would hunt from a truck of my own. This meant my bride had to endure the evaluation of every truck we passed on the road, every time we drove somewhere. I could tell it was getting a little old, since at the mere mention of the word “truck” I could hear her eyeballs grate as they rolled back in the sockets. It weren’t pretty. Darleen has some pretty severe health issues…mostly involving food allergies and chemical toxicity. Imagine you can only eat about 5-6 things (and they make you a little sick), you can’t eat them twice in row, and common “smells”, like perfume, cologne, laundry detergent, soap, car exhaust, wood smoke, cleaning solutions, air fresheners, cigarette smoke etc etc etc. This meant the “Truck” had to meet a few. It had to have; A/C with a recirculation feature (to keep out those evil smells), be a non-smoker (interior wise), 4x4, and a long bed.
Any guesses as to what year make model I was looking at before I list them out?
