    Default I guess that I'm not a hardcore biker anymore...

    I went and picked up a used Silverado 1500. Regular cab, shortbed and 2wd...
    It turns out that the Missus doesn't share her MINI quite as well as I had hoped...
    Besides; you can't haul much stuff to the transfer station in one of them anyway...
    So now I own another cage!

    The only place that I have to get to, is work; the commute is all of 30 feet! I can be patient and wait for the snowplows to pass...
    Thanks for the offer of the "Mighty Boa! "

    It was MUCH easier talking her into this, than letting me fill her MINI up with the week's refuse...
    Actually it may work out well for me...
    have "compromised":
    he MINI is hers
    The Spyder is mine
    We'll share the truck...

    I don't think she knows what she agreed to!

    On the new truck! I have 2005 Silverado regular cab, short bed with the tow package and used it for towing my boat. Its the Z71 off road with 4 wheel drive and around here many want to buy it for towing but its paid for and only has 32,364 miles on it. The boat is at a marina now when I took on a co-owner and I have thought about selling it but new payments for some thing else is a turn off.

    Enjoy your new toy and yes taking junk to the dump in a Mini, I can't picture that going well at all with your better half.
