Adios Big Red!

Big Red

We sold "Big Red" yesterday and I wanted to write a special tribute to her, haha silly I know. Big Red has been with us since the beginning! Jake got her when he was 16... (lucky boy) and then Big Red met me in Provo and we grew close fast. Big Red holds sooo many memories for Jake and I as a couple. We have been on long road trips with her from WA to CA to UT, some funny pranks she's been in like Chelsea and I stealing her away from Jake and Jake calling the police because we wouldn't confess (it was April fools day!) Jake and I first held hands in Big Red, and we had our first kiss dancing next to Big Red as she played romantic music for us in the parking lot. Jonathon loves Big Red too and keeps asking where she is. Jonathon was brought home from the hospital as a newborn in Big Red. He loved having a "Ruck." We decided it was time to let her go, she is getting old, has had a full life of 130,000 miles put on her. We got two new economy cars that are great on gas since Jake travels an hour a day, this is good! Big Red has been my car for the past two years, to save on gas, Jake took the Nissan to work. At first I was terrified to be driving a big truck around, and it has been so hard putting Jonathon and his car seat and groceries in that thing. So... I love my new car, a Nissan Maxima. Anyway,I hope she finds another happy home :) Adios "Roja Grande," gracias por todos de las memorias!
