New Rig

Post by JP_noonan » Sat Aug 24, 2019 11:37 pm

After having multiple problems continuously on my last 3 trucks, an F-250, a Silverado, and my latest piece of crap a GMC Sierra, my best friend convinced me to think outside the box and buy something different. So that's what i did today in buying my first Toyota. :shock: Being a contractor, i needed something totally reliable which these supposedly are, and i guess only time will tell. But my first impression after picking it up is Wow! Very nice ride with tons of power from the 5.7. The best part is, its made in Texas. :D

In the 80’s my dad bought a new Mercury sedan, talking to him on the phone after the purchase, he said he had figured out just about everything except the light on the dash of the little man sitting on the commode. Honest to God, he told me he guessed the little light (seat belt warning) was to remind you to go to the bathroom before you take off.

This is a real license plate that a lady had for 10 years until someone in the license dept thought it was not proper and should be removed. The case went to the governor of the state and he replied that she has had it for 10 years and she can keep it.

I like that NH governor's thought process! He probably read it 3 times, got it, laughed hard and thought "good idea". :)
