HUBBY'S NEW TRUCK

Dewayne got some really bad news when he got to work today... but the story starts 5 yrs ago, when my father in law's business was booming, and as a kind gesture towards D, he got him a company vehicle - and then 3 yrs ago, things started to head south for the family business, and we had to assume payments on the truck - which was no problem, we love the truck, and we needed it for our HUGE family... we only owe $4000 on it - less than a year's worth of payments, and it would be ours free and clear. We were really looking forward to having the much needed extra income after paying the truck off, but it was not to be.

The family business is in bad shape, and the truck is part of the business, and to make a long story short, D had to trade it in today on something in our name or lose the truck and all the investment we have put into it for the last 3 yrs. So, we got a really good deal on another Ford, F150 - Super crew cab - quite an upgrade from our extended cab. I'm glad for him in that he deserves a new truck, but he didn't want to let this one go - he was so proud of his truck, and it was so nice - but you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes...
