like a runaway with no driver
Wowzers, I did not see this one coming. My father has been truck-less for two years, and really, if anyone of us needs a truck, it's him. So today he and I went down to the car dealer to look at some used trucks after we got one of those "pre-approved" deals in the mail. I knew he wanted a truck, but I didn't think he'd be getting one, espically so close to the holidays. Technically, he hasn't got a new one, yet. But the truck that is sitting out in the parking lot right now has a very good chance of replacing the Corsica as my Dad's daily. It's a 2000 ('99?) Toyota Tacoma PreRunner. It's got the TRD offroad package, and it's of the SR5 designation. Nice truck really, has a 3.4 V6, auto-tranny, power locks/windows, keyless entry, extended cab, CD/tape radio, all that good stuff. Perfect for what he needs it for, and perfect for me. Yes, I'm greedy and verge on megelomanicisim at times, but eh....so when the Ranger dives in "non-truck" territory, we'll still have a truck to use. So it's all good. No pics, but I will if we get it.
BTW, yes, I did say PARKING LOT. Why? Well, at this very moment there are no less then 6 cars in the driveway, an '84 Benz, '91 Chevy, '01 Ranger, '93 Lincoln, '88 Chrysler, and a '00 Toyota. Tomorrow there will be no less then 5 more, probably closer to 8. And the best part is, all these cars fit, and so will most of the ones tomorrow. So that's why I called it, it being the driveway, a parking lot.
