Ok, so it's not too bad, actually. It's midnight blue, not purple - Rob's color blind. No, really. And I do have to say, it's a smooth ride. I took pictures - I'm not sure if I actually like the truck or not, or if I'm just so fucking relieved to have a decent vehicle again! However, it has a security chip in the key & tomorrow we have to drop like $150 at a Ford dealership to get a spare made. If the chip is damaged, unprogrammed or if a key is made that lacks the security chip, and said key is inserted into the ignition, the engine will shut down and not restart. Aint technology loverly?
Rob's got to get used to driving it. As a passenger, I can definitely tell the weight difference, the way it swings when making turns. It's not much longer or wider than the blue car, but it's taller & a little higher up off the ground. There's a tip-over danger sticker on the visors.
Anyway, I hate myself for accepting an SUV into my world and now I have no bitching rights about environment-hating SUV drivers. The sky shit on us earlier just to make its point, too, and it's supposed to shit another 5" by tomorrow morning. In mid-March, no less.
Well, if we ever do move to WA, this truck will be great.
