The Story of One Man’s Toyota Pickup Obsession
But then, another tragedy struck. And this time, there was no coming back.
“So here is where the story goes downhill in a very literal sense. In 2014 while on a camping trip in some beautiful hills, I went from photo one to photo two when the road I was driving down on the way back to town gave out. Freak accident, but it more or less put my baby in a hurt locker. She held together for somewhere around 20 rolls before a rock was nice enough to stop us about 200 yards down. By the grace of God and the skill of Toyota engineers, I walked away. I payed $80 to buy her back from the insurance company and stuck her in grandpa’s barn.”
Thankfully, however, that isn’t where this story ends.
“Now I can’t leave ya’ll fine folks on that note. So in 2016, after two years looking for a good truck, I found a sweet little 1980 Toyota pickup with no rust. Plus, it has all the options I wanted.”
Talk about a happy ending. But judging by the OP’s perseverance, we’re guessing this is only the beginning of the next chapter in his Toyota pickup obsession. Be sure and follow along as this new project begins by heading over here!
