The New Ride

As promised, pictures of the new ride:

2010 Toyota Tacoma 4×4, and with the interest rate I got, I’m only paying about $25 more in monthly notes for 60 months through Toyota Motor Finance than I would be paying for 72 months through my credit union. Even better, only about $100 a month more than I’d have payed for the 2006 Tacoma 4×4 with 91k miles on it.

I can afford the payments, but the truck would have been impossible to purchase without the donations of a number of you good people going towards a down payment. I can’t thank you enough for that.

Of course, toting a new monthly note means less gun acquisitions –*sob!* – but my new ride is downright purty, and she matches the color scheme of my bike. In short, she’s hawt, and she makes me happy in my pants.

In fact, she’s so hawt that I just don’t feel right calling her Frankenhoopty II. She deserves better.

So, I’m offering a challenge to you, my readers. What shall I name the new ride? Leave your suggestions in the comments, along with why that particular name suits me and the new ‘yota.

In a few days, I’ll pick the top five suggestions, and put them up in a blog poll for voting. The person who submits the winning suggestion gets a signed copy of En Route.

So get crackin’!
