Well tomorrow my son will probably get his first vehicle. I found it in Kentucky. 2011 Ford Ranger wheel drive with 40k miles. One owner. Regular maintenance record of fluid changes. A bittersweet feeling.
 
I never ate a TV dinner, never saw one in my house as a kid. Never saw one or knew what one was until I understood food shopping. My grandma would never LOL...and to this day I never even tried one...along with a lot of stuff you all mention you like...I know I know I am freak...lol
You aren't a freak. Just a family that someone liked to cook.
 
Drum roll please! This might not come as a surprise to you all kind and knowledgeable folks but on the rare occasion I have a donut, once or twice a decade, it the plain jane old fashion.
Dunkin old fashion !!!! yum for me once in a while
 
How you doing my friend? :smiling-face-with-smiling-eyes:
I am good...pretty quite night...Looking forward to letting the Copper Band Butterfly go free in the 300.. She been eating like a pig in the box...Last night was boring and so now I am super tired from doing much of nothing but watching the dark night sky. No paper work for me!!!

I hope it checks out in person. Been making him do the negotiations on price and asking for the Carfax. I did make a call letting the guy know it's a legit interest and made arrangements to hold it until tomorrow. Trucks sell for waaaay more than used cars.

Yeah I know!!
Used 4x4's here in Idaho go for bucks, even high miles. It's kinda ridiculous.
