A New Addition
Everyone, say hello to my girl Beatrice:
Miz B is a 2002 Chevy Silverado, and she is all mine!
My husband got real sick of sharing his newer, fancy-dancy, shiny red Toyota Tundra with me, and while I insisted that I didn't need a truck and that I was OK with cutting down on the pony travel if it interfered with truck-related plans he already had, the son of a gun went and bought me this beautiful old lady! He officially wins the husband of the year award, and I so love that he spends money on me in the form of pickup trucks and pocket knives instead of silly things like jewelry and flowers.
Guys. I love her.
She's a rusty old broad, but she's MINE. She's even got this little blue Forget-Me-Not, just like the red poppies my grandpa used to stick in the visor of his Oldsmobile. Clearly, B and I were meant to be.
And dang, that V8 engine is a beast!
Welcome to the fleet, Beatrice. I think we'll have a lot of great adventures together.

Best husband ever!
ReplyDeleteBest husband ever! Mine is always borrowing MY truck for things. Clearly he needs his own (though I don't think I'll be buying it for him :D )
ReplyDeleteExcellent choice in husbands, you have! Plus, Chevys are better than a stinking Toyota anyway 😉
ReplyDeleteYes, he wins the prize on this one and has banked some major points that he can cash in later.
ReplyDeleteoops forgot to add - a truck is a perfect gift and way better then any jewelry.
DeleteOMG CONGRATS!!! this is awesome.
ReplyDeletewhere did you get her? I'm truck shopping (OFFICIALLY)
husband of the year award, fo sho. we should have one of those in december...
Oh we SHOULD have SO of the year awards! Honestly we found the truck on Craigslist and bought it from some super nice Jersey guys. Between my husband and my brother (professional mechanic/car guy), there is a lot of truck knowledge in the family so they are able to weed out really sketchball vehicles and take on something that might need a little love. (B needs some parts replaced in the steering column, etc.) Took a while to find, though!
DeleteThat is a major husband win! This is so awesome!!!!
ReplyDeleteYAHOO. This is awesome.
ReplyDeleteAwww, what an awesome guy! Congrats on the new pony puller!
ReplyDeleteyessssssss i love this!!! my 2000 chevy has meant the world to me, and has been super reliable despite its age and superficial flaws. wishing you and B many happy miles together!! and maybe our trucks can even meet and have a little party?? (while obvi the ponies do the same lol)
ReplyDeleteSO happy for you. I love my truck and never ever want a car ever again. Even my husband covets my truck (and i barely ever let him drive it) :) Now you can really go wherever you want (HINT HINT FAIR HILL, RIDE WITH SALLY ETC ETC) YAY. (Ha he should have given you the Tundra but still a great husband) :)
ReplyDeleteSo happy for you! What a great edition :)
ReplyDeleteHaha so when I met my husband, I was driving a 2000 Chevy Silverado and he had the 2002 twin in a different color basically. When we bought the diesel, we sold his, but I'm a diehard Chevy fan <3 welcome to the fam B! And ALL OF THE PROPS to your husband for being awesome, what a guy.
ReplyDeleteWoo nelly! Congrats!
