BIG RED!

Well today while on my way to hell er. work I pass an older model Dodge, it looked the exact way i wanted Big red to look. For those of you who don't know Big Red was my first truck. It was an '87 Dodge half ton four wheel drive. Picture this coming down the road if you will a red truck with a maroon cab and hood and a brown tailgate, not to mention half a back bumper. It was the ugliest thing ever, but it was mine and I love that old truck. I almost miss it, ALMOST. Then i think of the gas mileage, the no a/c, the no radio, having to hold your foot on the gas at all times, the four wheel drive didn't work, it took forever to get it to get up and go, and how long it took to warm up on cold mornings. Oh and I forgot to add the the grill was busted out from where I got pissed b/c it broke down yet again and put my foot through it. This truck was my baby though. i always wanted to fix the four wheel drive, redo the paint, and fix everything (oh and jack it up a few more feet).
