New Truck

I finally got my truck! I've wanted a new truck since the second I sold my last one. We've been looking for a few weeks at all different kinds of trucks. I brought home a few for the wife to look at and got a lot of "that's not sitting in my driveway" looks and conversations. Found this one up in Corvallis. It's a Dodge Ram 1500 short bed. I want to fix a couple things on it but I'm happy with it and Ash is uhh...accepting of it.

We took her out for her first adventure last night. Ash got home from her river vacation around 5:30. I had a need to try the truck out off the main road so I thought we could go make a fire and roast some smores. Burklee refused to be left at home so she got to come too. It wasn't until after dark that we realized that we were up in cougar country and a little golden retriever would be a fine dinner. We kept her close and only smelled burning fur a few times. Hopefully this weekend I can try it out again without Ash covering her eyes and begging me not to role down the mountian. Here are some pictures of the truck and the girls.
