my trusty GMC power heated seat decided to quit working, out of protest, during it's first day as my daily driver.
The lil' Chief got sidelined as of yesterday. I took the brake controller out of it andwill start doing some much-needed upgrades so that it will be semi-trail ready when I get back up home.
After some speculation(and bantering by ChevyKev) I formally announce a new rig to the NBM household. I caught a train ride down to Bakersfield this past weekend and bought a 2001 Toyota Sequoia.
The highlights are:
3rd row seating for the clan
4wd of course, with part/full time, and low range
a staggering 22 mpg highway
ridiculously low price
I must say, the 6 hour drive back from Bakersfield was very nice. The Seq was averaging 22 mpg at 75 mph. Rides well, accelerates well, etc etc etc.
With the arrival of the Sequoia, the Jeep gets down time so I can modify and the truck becomes my DD. It was a win-win situation.
