After last week's
breakdown, Greg was more determined to buy this truck, and here it is! We went for a ride after he got home with it, and it's nice! It's a '99 but it was owned by this old guy who never drove it so it only has 68,000 miles on it. Now he finally has cruise control for his 80-miles-a-day commute.
I already named it, too. We have a weird tradition where we name our vehicles at least partly after their color (which shows a real lack of imagination, considering that our fish have real names). My first car (a periwinkle color) was Perry, my current car (silver) is Sylvie, Greg's old truck is Papa Smurf, and now this truck is Reggie, after Reggie White who played for the Packers. Greg being a Lions fan, he wasn't too keen on that, but he said he'll just try to forget the Packers connection.
