I am so excited! If things work out tomorrow, I'm getting a new truck. A
metallic blue Canyon. The salesman is a smart one.  He sent me home with
it last night.  You see I currently drive a GMC Typhoon.  GMC made them
in 1992 and 1993 and only made about 4,000 each year so there are only a
limited number still on the road which makes them a collectable. So the
appraiser at the dealership didn't want to give me a trade-in figure
since he didn't know enough about the value.  They are going to have an
antique/collectable appraiser take a look at it on Monday and then give
me an estimate when I return the Canyon.  The Canyon (made by GMC) is a
small pick-up truck. Something small enough to drive each day but with a
truck bed that I can carry flowers and trees and mulch from the county
extension office.  The one I want is a crew cab, with a back seat and
four doors.  When I told DH what I wanted he asked, "Why do you insist
on four doors?"  Well, duh! Its easier to put the cat carrier in the
back seat when you have a door rather than trying to maneuver around
bucket seats. (Well, its easier when one of the cats in the cat carrier
weighed 27 lbs when he had his teeth cleaned last week).  Enough said,
DH didn't argue with my logic :)
