It does not escape me that after 30 years of Maine living with no 4X4 I take the first opportunity here in the south I buy my first one <I>now</I> !<BR/><BR/>Good luck driving those icy Central Maine roads, stay safe!Elizabeth Pratahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341086233512507156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32297797.post-21017794910705400702007-05-21T10:56:00.000-04:002007-05-21T10:56:00.000-04:00Very nice.

It is ill equipped for Maine winters and certainly not equipped for the rugged, wood roads I sometimes have to go on. Could use your new truck. <BR/><BR/>ChuckAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32297797.post-77559127269757862882007-05-21T02:03:00.000-04:002007-05-21T02:03:00.000-04:00Not yet.

You're right, choosing a name is a difficult task. If "Untitled" was acceptable coming from an English Lit major, I might lean towards that and let the kid figure it all out later. <BR/><BR/>My first car was a light blue Honda Civic (Bessie), the second a white Nissan Sentra (Abby), and now Sophie (the British green Mini). It's getting kind of embarrassing at our house, we name everything - including the new bikes we bought a few years ago. Yeah, bikes...Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16120883583219857456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32297797.post-28493188416839667902007-05-20T07:35:00.000-04:002007-05-20T07:35:00.000-04:00Thanks!

The Honda I sold, a 20-year old Accord, the previous owners had named "Honey" because it was a sweet l'l thing that never let them down.<BR/><BR/>I am not going to name the Ford. I named my cat. That was taxing enough.<BR/><BR/>Speaking of naming...;) have you chosen names for your li'l honey?Elizabeth Pratahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341086233512507156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32297797.post-47049134904523874522007-05-20T05:23:00.000-04:002007-05-20T05:23:00.000-04:00Congrats on the new (to you) car. :) Are you part ...Congrats on the new (to you) car. :) Are you part of the population that names their vehicles?Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16120883583219857456noreply@blogger.com
