Finally got to drive my truck!!!

I am from beaumont, and I recently moved to houston to go to UTI. I was getting sick of houston so i decided to hop into my camry and drove 100 miles back to beaumont to just get out of houston. So today before i left i got in my truck and just drove around.

My grandparents gave me thier camry for my second car and I had to leave my truck cause It just wouldnt hold up to houston traffic, and also 16mpg wasnt going to work! SO I got a daily driver and my truck, I didnt realize how much I would miss it and a standard transmission!! I cant wait untill I graduate and then the buildup and buildup threads are going to start!!

I totally can relate. When I have to work out of town I always see trails or something I would love to do in my truck. When I get back tho first thing I do is take my truck out for a boot.
