Okay you ready for the more to come??????
There is another truck there I would have loved to have. I said I sure would like that truck too. The fellow says well for xxx dollars more you can have it. I said I want both but don't have enough cash. Oh well. Then I says let me work to buy it. He says well I may have to think about that. I stopped in this afternoon to snap some pics and he says I thought about it and have some stuff you can do around here. Tuesday morning I go in to work for my new addition. Hopefully it works out.

I do not mind a 2wd..Have owned and run them in the worst of storms and not a big deal at all
If you have good tires and common sense about driving you will make out fine
Lot of times 4x4s are over rated and cost more for up keep

I'm thinking about looking for a 2wd crew cab pick up XL package..I would be plenty happy having one of those..
What the heck..My XLT's are worthless so may as well have a truck with very little toys..A/C and radio is all I want
