Sold My Truck

Well, I decided to sell my 2000 Ford Ranger pickup truck. I haven't really driven it much at all over the last 3 years, and I'd like to get a new vehicle within the next 6 to 12 months. It wasn't really doing me any good losing value sitting in my driveway, so I cleaned it up and put an ad out on Saturday. I got a call Sunday morning, and sold it Sunday evening, just as the Super Bowl was beginning. I got exactly what I wanted for it, and it was a very quick, painless transaction. Wow, amazing how that all comes together. I'm tempted to go out now and get a new vehicle, perhaps an SUV and take advantage of some dealer incentives, along with a rebate bonus on my GM card. But, I'm not even sure what I want for sure, so at least I've got a few months to get out and do some shopping and do some test driving. It should be fun, at least for awhile.
