Hubby got the call yesterday that his truck was ready to pick up.
I've never seen someone move so fast!!

Anyways (lol), we left our nice, sunny weather home and as soon as we hit south of Forbes Rd (Dalston) on the 400 hwy we ran into the white stuff.

Lots of accessories still need to be added to the KW yet.
I still got lots more trees to de-limb
And the very best news.... Hubby goes back to work on Monday!!

A great looking truck. Now, if only you could bring that weather down here!

Nice truck!!

nice lookin truck

look in the tunk

Congrats, very nice truck indeed

Nice truck, should be able to haul lots of sleds behind that.

Now that's what we call a TRUCK

Aww thanks guys, you're all the best!!
I'm just glad it's finally home
The build date was October 8th and it was in Concord, Ontario on October 23.
Took one month and two days from build to delivery, not bad at all

About the trailer (hee hee), we were looking at them last Friday and I found a nice 43' gooseneck for $39,000.00
Hubby said "no" and he bought a 24' flat front instead. Nice trailer, but I REALLY liked the other one

Yeah, pretty messy in Barrie yesterday but hubby was having a blast with the Jeep and playing in the snowbanks lol.
Brat and I were in Orillia today and the snowflakes were flying; no accummulation though

I'm jealous , no nicer feeling for a driver than that of a new rig .............. you and hubby christen the bunk yet

LOL, you should have seen the huge grin on his face driving home!! It was priceless
Boys and their toys
As for the bold no time...

Two things I gotta learn FAST!!
1. Don't stand up from the seat (no more mid roof)
2. Remember the step going down from the cab to the bunk (not flat anymore)
I've already banged my head and wiped out going to the bunk!!

Nice ride there you got there. Now all we need as a video of you taking the ol International out and thrashing it.

No more condo! well great lookn' truck...
When you want to tow to the tug hill let me know and you can pick me up on the way through and we can stay a friends down south.

Beauty, enjoy the truck, and the payments................................

Most times you gotta spend money to make money.

Here is a Freightliner I came across in my day to day work as a claims adjuster.....................
thank goodness the driver was not sleeping in it..

Hubby doesn't go Stateside, but the offer does sound tempting
