About Me
My 1984 Honda Accord
Here is a picture of my 1984 Honda Accord.  I got this car when I was a sophomore in high school.  At that time it was in excellent shape for its age.
I had this car since February of 1996.  While this car was old, I still enjoyed driving it sometimes. When we bought it, it had air conditioning which went out two years after I got it.   I did have to let go of it in February.
My 2002 Nissan Frontier Pickup Truck
Here is a picture of my new truck.  I have had this new truck since November.  I had to get rid of that old car pictured above. 

That car had gotten to be pretty dangerous.  The brakes were bad and it needed a carburetor.  I just felt like it was past time to get a new vehicle.  

I had that old Honda for almost seven years.  I hope to have this truck for 20 years or 200,000 miles, whichever occurs first. 

There are times when I miss that old car.  Then I remember that I couldn't drive long distances because of a fear of breaking down in it.   I really appreciate this new truck. 
This truck features a powerful 2.4 liter inline 4-cylinder engine that gets around 25 miles per gallon.*
A five speed manual transmission with a granny low first gear combined with a regular first gear. 
Cruise Control, CD player, air conditioning. 
Capable of towing up to a 3,500 pound trailer with trailer brakes.  Has a 1400-1500 pound payload capacity and is a half-ton.   Also has a locking tailgate. 

It is small, but is tough and is heavy duty for its size.   While it is a compact pickup, it is overall a light duty truck as it cannot pull really heavy trailers or carry heavy weights in the back.I can drive it on rough roads and it survive those rough old roads.   I enjoy driving this truck.
This truck is one of the only small trucks to come in a long wheelbase model, which is what this truck is.    I am really proud to have this new truck.  This truck has the same wheelbase and length as a regular cab shortwheel base full size pickup truck. It will bring me joy for years to come.

  *The powerful 2.4 liter four cylinder engine is one of the most powerful engines of its size.
