Little Red Riding Truck

                                                               
This cute shiny truck is starting something new, something it's never done before...work. Yep a whole new life is in store for Little Red Riding Truck.

When the husband was looking for an economical vehicle to do the running around in, you know because gas is ridiculous and all, he found this cute little thing sitting in a car lot. The price was perfect, the condition was immaculate and for a used truck you couldn't ask for lower miles.

So what's the catch, I mean every car has it's story and so.. the husband asked.

The story goes, a 95 year old man bought the truck from a car dealership, it was a trade in from someone else. He had it only a couple of months when he was told he was dying. Since he was going  into a nursing home he decided to have his truck sold on consignment from the very dealership he bought it from.

The dealership obliged the frail old man. A few more months went by and as it turned out, the man never died. He returned to the car lot and told his friends he wasn't dying after all and if they would, perhaps they could use his truck as a trade in for a smaller car.

Once again the dealership honored his wishes. The truck stayed where it was at and he drove off in a new car.

Yes, there is a 95 year old man out driving somewhere so be warned. Lucky for the husband he went home with a used truck in perfect condition.

It's days of sitting in a garage or car lot are over. This Little Red Riding Truck has begun a new life. It's a parts runner, farm hand, and hauler.

And sometimes, it even takes us to Grandmother's  house.
