New Wheels!!

Caution: this is the guy of the group blogging about my new truck. Sorry if I put in too many guy details for the lady followers of this blog!

Back to Christmas morning... my beautiful wife got super excited when I went to open my card, which was after all the other presents had been opened. I was wondering what all the anticipation was about. Little did I know, when I opened it up there would be a key chain with a little paper truck and a note saying my wife was buying me a truck for my big present! WOW!! I was shocked. When the shock wore off a little, I was so thankful that my amazing, giving, and loving wife would use some of her invested money to take care of her man. (My '98 VW Jetta is on its last leg!!) So after some research and a little looking around, we have bought the awesome Ford F-150 you see in the pictures below. I love it.... Thanks so much to my lovely wife! You are the best!!!


About the truck: 2010 Ford F-150 Super Crew, with a 5.4L V8 engine, the decked out chrome package, loaded down with extras inside, 5 1/2' bed. I am not sure how this hadn't sold off the lot through 2010 but we are very thankful it was around so we could get some awesome year end closeout deals!!

Kim talked with her dad a day before the truck was coming in from NC (the dealer located it for me and brought it in for the sterling gray color and features I wanted). Kim was talking with him about putting a bed liner in to which Pops replied that maybe we would get a nice surprise and there would be one already factory installed. Well, lo and behold, the truck showed up with a bed liner, which wasn't in the price and was an added bonus. Pops, you are good!!!

Absolutely loving the new truck and looking forward to actually getting to know what all the gadgets actually do! Thank you so much Kim for my awesome Christmas present! You are the best wife I could ever dream of having and I thank God for you each and every day!!!
