No more diesel
Traded today. My beloved Ford F350 King Ranch is gone. Dianna isn't too sad though. The new F150 is a very gentle ride in comparison. I got more than I was asking in trade plus incentives on top of that, so I am satisfied with the deal. Ford even chipped in an additional $1000 rebate for Black Friday. The Ecoboost is a nice running engine with lots of acceleration.
Well, I guess the last vestiges of the nomad life are removed. To tell the truth, we have settled in rather well. I bought a zero-turn lawn mower to mow the two acres. It cut about two and a half hours off my mowing time. Ain't had so much fun since my go cart days.
