Truck

My parents were at an auction today, and purchased a '92 Ford F150. This serves two purposes: that it can serve around the farm as a pickup does and that I can drive it to school and other places. This is pretty great.

I've never driven a truck before. (The vehicle I've practiced in is a '98 Camry.) It's similar to driving standard cars, but the lanes seem really narrow because the seat is up so high. The pedals have different sensitivities than the Camry, of course, but I got used to that easily enough. There's currently an issue with the steering wheel's straight-ahead position not corresponding to actually going straight, but that can probably be fixed by some wheel inflation.

I'll have my license soon, possibly within weeks, so this is great timing.




Thanks, Mom and Dad!
