Trimming down the fleet...........

After giving the matter lots of thought, I decided to trim down the personal fleet a bit. With my wife an I being the only drivers at home now, having 5 vehicles seemed to be a bit much. So, I traded in my 2012 standard cab F150 and my Ford Diesel Excursion for a 4 door F150. Since it will be doing the work of both vehicles, I have decided that it is a "Truc-Kursion". The new ride is a (new) 2014 with leather interior, 5.0 engine and enough options to keep it interesting for a while. One of my favorite goodies on this truck is the backup camera that lets me see the trailer hitch! My wife and I took it on a little road trip to Columbus, GA yesterday and got 20.5 mpg! In town it will probably be more like 16 mpg or so. Now, there are "only" 4 vehicles left, the Truc-Kursion, a 2013 Taurus, my 1980 911 SC w/3.3SS engine and a 1994 Jaguar XJS convertible. It will be tough, but I guess we will manage!
