FergusonK's journal - Goodbye Java Jewel.

That is so exciting!! I am so happy for you!!!!! I had a 1984 Chevy stepside that we bought for $400 out of a hayfield. We had the transmission done, fixed everything and were about to paint and do the interior when we bought our farm. I made the decision to sell it instead of spending more $$ on it, it was at a time where I had to make a priority decision. So we sold it and I took the money and bought rolls of horse wire and T-posts. While I miss my truck, I am proud of my fencing. So I know what it means to have your very own truck, one that you can go pick up feed in, do your farm stuff and not have to make arrangements otherwise. Congratulations on a fantastic deal on your very own truck!!!

So... just bought some stuff for my truck while I'm watching John work on it.

For thoseof you who don't know I'm obsessed with goats and the color purple.

Just priced a paint job for the truck, it costs almost as much as the truck. That can wait. We just spent another $$$ getting parts to spruce it back up.

John has me buffing the headlights and ratail ights and then after he's done changing parts around and putting new parts in I'll betaking it to get detailed (inside, kinda scruffy) and then off to get feed.

Anyways, I got a few things for the truck on Amazon and a few at O'Reileys while we are in there. New purple steering wheel cover, keychain that says I ♡ Goats, window sticker that says crazy goat lady, seat cover to keep the dogs from tearing it up, a replacement latch for the tailgate since it's missing, and purple floor mats.

Attaching a picture of the sticker and keychain because about half of you need these in your life.

I have magnets made with our farm name and info on them that will go full time on this truck since it is the goat truck. Normally I just slap them on John's truck when we go places but now I have my own.

I'll still use my car as a daily driver, since it's brand new and the truck is not.

Yes! I have an "I love goats" bumper sticker but my husband and I share vehicles so he won't let me put it on. I totally need the one you got...

So after driving all over 2 cities we finally got the final part to get the truck up and running. The 3-4 solenoid? I got it from five different places and FINALLY John found one where we got the first one yesterday, they had received more in. UGH. Could've saved lots of time...

Anyways truck runs great, still a few minor issues but nothing he cant fix. I was going to go get feed with it when he got done, but, June had other ideas.

Congrats on the new truck! I know you've been wanting and needing one for a while. Congrats on the babies! And yes. I need this in my life..... But I really like the "goat milk?" stickers hahaha. I have issues with putting things on my vehicle that alert folks to knowing which is mine in a parking lot.... Just a weird paranoia deal I guess?
