Test Drive

My brother, who is away at college, needs to get himself a car. He is poor, as most students are, and so requires and older vehicle. One of my neighbors has a 1985 Ford Bronco. This thing has power and then some. There are a few rust spots in the door jams, but the exterior body looks nice, and has had a recent paint job. It has a small lift on it, with some big ol' tires. Basically, everything my brother would want if he were to take it off road.

Since my brother lives slightly more than an hour away, it became my chore to test drive this beast. It definitely drives like an old truck. And yes, it has power! I put that thing through the ropes. I think it has a hole in the muffler, but I could be mistaken. If I had the money, I would get it. I work very close to home, and in need of something that I can beat up hauling building materials for my basement and other weird projects that I get involved in. Too bad I don't have any money. That is where a raise would be nice, but again, I've got other debt that needs to be taken care of.

Test driving this beast, reminded me of the old Test Drive games. I don't remember which one it was that first let you drive all over the map, up and down hills, but I had flash backs to that while testing out the different aspects of four wheel drive. That is a past time people really don't enjoy anymore. Four wheelin'. We used to go all the time in High School during lunch, or right after. Granted back then the private mountain was open for that. Too bad the guy got smart and started developing it. We used to have a LOT of fun up there.

Another thing to add to my list of things to do once I take over. Go four wheelin', in a BIG dirt churning truck! One that says to the ground, "I rip your face off!"
