The time has come to say goodbye

Hey guys, well with college coming at me faster everyday I have made a choice that I feel is for the best. I am selling my trucks, all of them xpt for the '74 that was my grandpa's truck for obvious reasons. I recently bought a 2002 Silver Trans Am as my DD, so this is goodbye. Y'all have been a great help to me when I have been in a serious bind and couldn't figure out my left from my right. Their is more information here than in several dictionaries. So thank you for the help guys and keep on truckin'! I included a picture of my Trans Am for y'all.

You ain't gotta go, truck ownership is not required.

Re: The time has come to say goodbye

Don't put your life and the things you love to a screetching halt when you get to college, it makes you pretty home sick. I spent my first year without my truck, and because I didn't have my truck I didn't have my drums either. Cars and music are my two main hobbies.

Since you got that Trans Am, I think you'll be fine though.

Re: The time has come to say goodbye

Hope everyting works out well for you, but like everyone else - you'll be baaaacccccckkkkkkk!!!!!!!! It's like an addiction, just when you've think you've past it some 73-87 will go by and then later you'll find one sitting on the side of the road for sale, and hey you have just the right amount of cash, wham - been there done that.

Take care, or see you soon.

Dave, Best of luck in your school work.
I know well the expense of getting that education, but in the end it is money well spent! Remember we all get educated, some just pay a higher price for theirs!
Drop in and visit here every now and then and let us know how it's goin' for ya!

Regards,
