Ode to the 4x4

Ok, not really.

Oh, that I was the owner of that most wonderful machine of Gramps's. I borrowed his truck for the weekend so that my dad could have my malibu's tires rotated and balanced. If I had the money I would buy one. I love being up high and and not having other vehicles' lights in my eyes. It was loverly. The power behind it was great also. I put $10 worth of gas in it since it was at half a tank and I didn't know how much it would take to cover for the weekend. $10 filled it the rest of the way up! The truck has maybe taken 1/4 of a tank and that includes going from mom and dad's house back home and then going to classes at the university and some small trips on the side. Not bad. I was expecting worse mileage.

I am going to be pretty sad when I have to turn it back over when I go to b-town after church tomorrow. Sad day, I mean, I love my malibu but I have really enjoyed driving a truck. I am kind of a truck girl. Not a country girl, but a truck girl.
