Well, She’s Gone
With used parts, the repair would have run about $3000. The guy asked me if I wanted him to try and save it.
God, this feels like telling a vet to put a dog to sleep. Dammit. Just too many memories wrapped up in that little truck, a lot of long drives down a lot of dusty roads here in Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee. Always reliable. Always a little fun to drive.
Shit.

RIP to a good damn truck, my condolences man.
July 18th, 2002 at 10:47We’ll raise a glass to Darlene here at Doug’s Place.
Hang in there, Geof.

July 18th, 2002 at 12:05I think Geof’s idea of a memorial will be a pile of thoothpics when they get done with that tree.
July 18th, 2002 at 12:36You damn right. Anyone got any C4?
