Truck

Ok, I'm going to shut up about this new truck soon, I promise; just not today. Have to post a photo of it.



It's a big beast; much taller, longer and heavier than our previous truck but that's what we need for towing our trailer. Back East the mountain grades aren't like the grades out here and our old truck wasn't dealing with them very well. Still, it's a shock. Those running boards were an option but without them my wife found it very difficult to get into the truck - and she's 5'7" (170cm).

Gotta go - play with the new toy. Take care, it's dangerous out there!

Nice truck Don! Now hook up the trailer and go try it out!

It's lovely. And it must be mammoth if your tall wife needs them to get in and out of it.

Congrats! At the risk of being repetitious, I can't BELIEVE such big vehicles are petrol-powered. No wonder they're called gas guzzlers!

The background in the pic looks tantalizingly enticing.
