    Hi all,
    So Friday I found myself outside of work with jumper cables in hand shoulder tappin kids for a jump to get my ol Honda started. I’m 56. This seemed in very short order unacceptable. I got a jump and drove directly to the local Taco Joint. Here is my Taco. Super stoked. I still have my lil 86 22r currently sitting with 575000miles but is last gasping. Grateful. 0D2F1786-C17E-4725-9519-FD4B83B66E4E.jpg

    Thank you, I really dig it. I’ve been saving in a dedicated truck fund for 19 months; since I turned 55.
    It took me a while to get to the jumping off point but I have 0 regrets.
