The poorly detailed truck started acting up after everyone got in the truck and we had to swap trucks today.  Gotta take my truck in for the same thing I brought it in for a month or so ago.      Americus will never let me make another Chevy joke now. Somehow, I’m sure I’ll disappoint.   But the good news is we mowed all our lawns and didn’t break anything!  Yeah? Yeah! Now we’re cooking with oil.  Watch out!

Fix or repair daily.

I made the Found on road dead joke.  As we left in another Ford truck.  I think that is Chevrolet’s marketing ploy.  It’s tough to come up with a mnemonic that makes sense for something with 9 letters.  Especially one that involves the letter “V”.  Let’s face it.. I can only think of one word.  Which is why Americus likes her truck. It’s a chick truck! Boom! I did it!!!

I had a Ford minivan that was an unkillable tank. Then I had a GMC Yukon XL that was probably the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. I loved that truck. The only problem it had was a blend door that would intermittently open to full heat on the driver’s side when the AC was running. I fixed it and then a couple of years later it started again so my son fixed it by overcorrecting when he got the front tire onto a soft shoulder. He rammed it into the tree line on the other side of the road. Seatbelts and airbags worked great. Those were the last things to ever work on that truck.

Whoah whoah whoah.  Ford minivan, or any mini van vs Yukon is not even a fair fight. I’d take the Yukon every day of the week and twice on Sunday.  Heck, I’d take a Yukon right now. 

Mighty manly of you to admit you owned a minivan though.
