Bought a Ford
Category Cars and TrucksHowdy All!
Just thought you'd be interested to know, I no longer will be taking my Saturn Sedan when I go camping!
I just bought a new (used) truck! Here are the details:
1989 F150 (Ford 1/2 Ton pickup for you non-truck people) XLT Lariat, Extended Cab, Shortbed, power Everything, 4-Wheel drive, AC, AT, Cruise Control, Sliding Rear Window, Tinted windows. It has new Tires & Custom rims, Captain's seats up front, and new carpet. It is a very pretty metallic blue, and I will love him, and pet him, and wash him, and call him George.
Sorry about that, I'm still pretty excited with it >;)
Anyway, I managed to get the whole shebang* for only $4300, which means I have enough money left over to eat this month.
TTFN!
Devin.
*The word shebang, though not often used anymore, used to be very common in spoken American English. It is a slang word, and most likely stems from a combination of the root Germanic bangt, meaning huge or many; and the root French (Romantic) sheira, meaning excitement or interest.
