SOLD!
I sold my Explorer today. I didn't think I'd be as sad as I am. I bought it on prom day of my senior year of high school...May 31, 2003. Sooooo many memories in the past 5 years...
-Off-roading in the field in Alpine and covering it in mud
-trying to wash it on the several occasions i got it covered in mud
-sliding across 2 lanes on the los coches freeway entrance when the tires were getting bald and somehow not hitting the wall
-sliding across granite hills drive when i took a corner too fast
-making a bed in the back
-driving up to big bear with jessica and having to pull over when a cardboard coaster got stuck on the roof and started making a hideous sound
-trying to sleep in the back
-THE DIP AT GROSSMONT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-feeling like i got air on the dip on julian in lakeside
-many adventures through east county...just me, the exploder, and the open road
-how it felt like it was going to fall apart at 75 mph
-when smoke used to come out of the top of the steering wheel when putting on the blinker
-having to "jack off" the driver door when the lock stopped working
-towing a boat
-somehow fitting 3 mountain bikes and 3 people in on many trips up to the pine valley jumps
-shortly after buying it, getting stranded at the arco on madison when the battery died
-danny begging me to sell it after riding in it once
i can't think of any more, but there were some good times in those 5 years, 2 months and 4 days...
have fun in mexico, explorer...i'll miss you. i'm sure the tacoma will keep me good company.
