Good-bye Tacoma-----Hello, Jeep!

   In March it was I that first gave up on the my trusty 10 year old Malibu but yesterday my son gave up on his 12 year old Tacoma Truck.  It served him well.  It was never a chick magnet and now it was pretty sad looking.  Dull black, dings, splatters, low-riding, and no hub caps!  But not bad on gas, room enough for camera gear, and comfortable enough for the daily drive to Philly.  Two vehicles in about 20+ years of driving isn't too bad.  

So here's the old Tacoma that he had:

But he bought a new Cosmos Blue Jeep.  He took me for a ride in it and it was quite comfortable until we got on some bad roads in Pitman and then it was a little like taking it on an off-road trip. Looks rugged enough so it should last at least another ten years and it might be a little more fun on work-free days now that he has a few of them.
