My new ride

Well, things came to a head last week.  J has now opened the third and final (at least for now) branch of BlairCo Services, the lawn care side.  We bought a huge mower and trailer.  The problem with this is his Ford Fusion can not pull the trailer.  We were switching cars so he could used my 4Runner when I did not have product shows, but of course that finally caused problems last week.  He scheduled 10 lawns on wednesday and I had 2 product shows, needing my 4Runner.

Our quick solution was for me to drive my MIL's Durango.  When I got done with my shows we went over to Pappa Toyota to see J's buddy Mike, who is a sales man there.  I would have been perfectly happy in another 2003 4Runner. I just have loved my truck so much.  J says, only his wife would pick the exact same car for her new car. I say, don't rock the boat when you love something.  I was talked into a 2006 Sequoia. It is quite a bit larger than the 4Runner, but doesn't drive that way.  However, I really notice the difference when it comes to parking.  I have to back up and straighten myself out multiple times in each parking space. I am sure the people around me are thinking, that woman can't drive something that big.  I also didn't love the color, a goldish tan...hey I am a black or white gal, but it is starting to grow on me.  J tells me that in 2 years this will become a work vehicle for him too and will finally get a brand new car!

For now, just stay out of my way in parking lots.
