Shit, My Truck is Broken!!!!

That's right, my beloved Toyota Tacoma Prerunner is fricken' broken. I really loved that truck okay. And no, not in an unhealthy, freaky way. It's just that, I had always wanted a Toyota Truck and when I got this one, it was like all the planets were aligned. It was 4 door - so perfect for when I have to transport people. It was a truck so I could feel kinda rugged AND it was a Toyota, it was supposed to last me forever. Who the hell knew forever only meant 8 years.

Well, you may be asking at this point what's wrong with the truck. It has a hole in the engine. Yup. Hole. A hole means you have to replace the engine, you can't fix it. All in all, the engine plus another part, plus the labor would have cost me upwards of $10,000. Yeah, sucks. Major. When I first found out, I was so fricken pissed, but you know, can't dwell on the negatives. There were a bunch of positives to the situation that I'll have to fill you all in on later.

As for my truck, my uncle in Kona said that he wanted it and he would pay me for it - $4,000. Then I had the truck towed to my house from the shop and the tow truck guy offered me $5,000 for it. My uncle was cool with that so I'm just waiting on the tow truck guy to come and pay me and pick up the truck and it's aloha 'oe frankie. No more Toyota Tacoma. My truck's name is Kula, so of course, I had to have a shot on Saturday in memory of him. Bye Kula!
