Our New Friend .... Bo Hemoth

The end of an era - the PVC pipe tailgate

everything that rides in the truck bed, okay, not the vacuum cleaner

Bo and haRVey - I hope they can be friends for  a LONG time.

We look different, but ready to roll

Our old truck is in the background (black circle)

We have had an adventure this past week.  Dave stopped in at the local Chevy dealership in Detroit lakes to see about getting a tune-up for the truck as we will be tackling the Rocky Mountains next week and came home a pre-owned one ton, quad cab, dualy diesel truck - it is a monster truck. We now are now in the commercial truck class for licensing and tags - hence the name: Bo Hemoth.

We knew the old truck needed some work done, but by the time all reports were in it was not in our best interest to fix it ($10,000+). YIKES! 
Our truck has been with us for 4 years.  It is the only truck haRVey has ever known - us either, for that matter.

Now here comes the cool God part... Bo, our new truck, had been in the lot one week. The previous owner runs a trucking company and kept the truck in tip-top shape. Dave has said about our old truck, "I wish our truck had..." this one does have that plus the back door locks work, there is a working speaker on the passenger door and there is a step to get into the truck.  I was sort of graceful at making the leap from the street to the passenger seat - sort of. But now I don't have to. It walks away with our house where the old one struggled. We are glad to have it for our trip into the Wild West. And it is still under warranty. Thank you, Lord, for your constant care.
