Cool looking truck, Spike. What’s the details? Mileage, year, make, model…? As for being a dickhead… there’s something good to be said for that. :D

Oh my gawd. Good thing you don’t live in a co-op anymore? you’d be pelted by rocks and garbage!

Yay! Another member of the Kill the Earth Brigade! (I drive a truck as well) Glad you found a new truck, sounds like life is getting back to normal.

Hey Jawn

they would be all superior in a green kind of way, and then they would ask me to take a bunch of crap to the dump for them and, oh, while you are at it. can you pick up a few things at Home Depot?

Co-op life is like that.

Geez, I don’t miss it one little bit.

It’s a ‘93 Toyota 4×4.

The guy who owned it took really good care of it and it is really nice to drive.

Rae,

maybe we should get those “Real Women Drive Trucks” bumperstickers.

Always good to know there are other women out there, truckin’ around.

ooooh nice, I like it. Mine’s a purple ‘99. I could use a cap too.

Great truck! You will be able to sneer at other Vancouver drivers from great heights now.

Good choice, Spike. I like it.

It’s cute! It’s big! It’s shiny!
What’s the mini-windshield in front for?

ps: You say “macho dyke” like it’s a bad thing.

Lala,

I’ve been noticing some purple Toyota trucks lately. I think that is a really interesting marketing decision, you know, to make purple trucks.

I hope you get beaucoup pleasure out of your truck.

And Afuwa,

the mini-windshield is so the bugs have a windshield of their very own.
Yes, I am *that* considerate.

And no, I don’t think it’s a bad thing to be a macho dyke, but I draw the line with Monday Night Football.
That’s too hardcore for me.

You need the bumper sticker:
One Less Car

tee hee. It’s not an SUV btw, it’s a TRUCK!
Much more macho.
