Nothing like a good reliable truck

 

It’s a beauty. Yes, an early 1980’s Chevy truck. 

A couple of months ago when I spotted this in our neighbor’s driveway, I was smitten.  My neighbor's father bought this truck brand new and recently passed it on to his son.

Come to find out, there are some pretty interesting stories that go along with this truck.  Maybe I can get my award winning writer friend, Preston Lerner, who mentioned me in his Last Days of the the Minivan story to write about it.

Now, this ultra cool truck is towing my neighbor’s boat down to Newport.  That is, until he drives it to Iowa and passes it on to his brother.  I think this cutie of a truck is going to feel quite at home amongst the fields of corn.  Meanwhile, I’m going to admire it while I can.

Great Truck.

I have always wanted a nice neighbor with a good reliable truck. Actually the neighbor doesn't have to be THAT nice. Just as long as I can borrow the truck to go garage sailing. Yeah- that is the kind of sailing we do in this part of the OC.

Sweet truck. In college you were a wanted man if you owned a truck. Not because it was stylish, but come the first of the month, MOVING DAY. I had a Chevy Luv truck back in the day. My dad pasted that one onto me too. Many, many good memories. I vaguely remember a trip to SD for a Charger game. Ride back was a little fuzzy.
