bye-bye pick-up... hello trooper!

we never thought it would be that fast. jude posted our for-sale pick-up in sulit.com last thursday night and a lot of interested buyers emailed and called him the following morning. one of them immediately went to our house saturday afternoon as he was really too eager to see the vehicle and after a round of drive-test and engine check-up, and a little haggling over our price, we were able to close the deal! he went back this afternoon as he promised and paid us in cash; hence, with a heavy heart, we say "adieu, isuzu pick-up!" you served us well in just short span of time that we had you. =( how can we possibly transport the refrigerator and freezer borrowed from our mommies so we can use them in our store if not for you! now the problem is: how are we gonna give them back? =P

one reason by the way why jude disposed the pick-up is he's head-over-heels interested with the isuzu trooper his best buddy, dylan, is selling. the trooper is actually already with us since june, he's just waiting for us to raise enough cash for the payment. he never entertained any buyer--just jude. and the price is really a steal for a 4x4 so jude grabbed the chance and decided to sell the pick-up since we have no extra cash for another vehicle (i actually made him choose... hehe).

hay... what's with 4x4 vehicles that make guys drool over them? dylan got himself a better-looking 4x4 that's why he disposed the trooper. another friend of jude who happens to be iƱigo's ninong has a land rover while another friend has... tan-ta-na-nan... a range rover!!! so imagine my pity for jude when he only got himself an old model of isuzu trooper. =( but what the heck! with the soaring fuel prices these days, we're better off with this car. at least it's not as fuel-hungry as the other cars i mentioned so we can still enjoy long road trips without the guilt-feeling.
