Goodby, Old Friend

First off, many thanks to all of you who contributed suggestions on how to flunk a California smog test. It worked!

Last Friday, when I brought in my donor truck for the smog test at my local garage, the owner started eyeballing my Big 10. Pretty soon, there was a crowd of mechanics swarming over it and an offer was made my way. I purchased a 2013 Silverado 4WD LTZ on President's Day, so I made the gut-wrenching decision to let my Big 10 go to a new home. It seems like yesterday that I brought her home from the dealership on Christmas Eve of 1977. I'd be lying if I said I didn't shed a tear or two after 35 years of reliable driving. My only consolation is that it has gone to a good home.
