    Tundra: Hello

    E'hem.... My turn.
    Will try to keep this short and efficient.

    -Once had a 99 ford v8. Great truck. Loved it.

    -moved up to a 6.0L f250. Not so great. It hated me.

    -figured I'd like a car. Cars can't get turned into your boss's work truck. Hell yeah, haul your own crap "boss"!
    Me and car were ace boon coons!

    -recently while I and car were at the carwash, rather late and no one else was there. Two dudes noticed Car and myself happened to be there rather late while no one else was there and decided to keep us company.

    Long story short, the two dudes, dress in I'm assuming their Halloween costumes, convinced me that I wanted them to have my car.

    Short story shorter, two dudes crashed into a house or something.

    -Next day, no ride, in a new area, no ride.

    -Mom to the rescue!

    -She was already heading my way and told me to get on the internet and see what I could find that was between here and the two hours of driving for her. Yadda yadda....

    -hey son, 2014 ford 150 in pristine condition for $$.....

    -hey mom, as great a mother you are and have been.... Let's not ruin that.

    -hey unappreciative son.... For the same price a nice 2007 Tundra.

    -Hot damn! We're done shopping!
    I hope you take checks!

    In a nut shell... From Kemah Texas,
    Twinky.

    Pics after I shower.

    Welcome from CO.

    One of the more interesting and creative introductions I’ve read.

    Sure hope those two thieves decapitated themselves when running into the house.

    Longest shower ever! Must be washing certain areas very well...at a medium pace.

    They atleast went to jail that night. If they were able to post bail it should only be until they go to court. Apparently they were just starting their night when they came across me.

    Why thanks, and back at ya! Congrats to you too!

    clothes are a gooooo!
    just this once though.

    they did total the car...... so, not like id have to clean it up! Heres too wishful thinking!

    It was a magical moment.
    the trick is to be in a really nice neighborhood and totally let your guard down.
    Oddly enough, it did actually work out well for me. Thanks.

    Yea, or a steam roller.
    Thank you. minutes of intense focus and thought were channeled from my inner Faulkner.

    Late at night is the only time you can get the good vacuum!
    And thanks.

    Im no Rembrandt but i thought it was refrigerator worthy. I mean its symbolic of something pretentious and yadda yadda some hipster existential thingies....

    Its a Tundra man! all i had was pen. i couldn't erase. lol
