It can be very out doorsie. Fishing's great! I can go to the park in town and pull 15lb salmon out of the river all day long when the season's open. It's more expensive than some parts of the country, but less than others. I really like our mild winters. We don't get much, if any, snow. Which is very un-Canadian. But I've been skiing in February in the morning and then down at the beach in a T-Shirt in the afternoon with the dog. Being in the Air Force I've lived in many parts of our great land, and this is by far my favourite. The wife and I will be retiring here, and exploring with a trailer and our new truck!
Enjoy the new truck!

You know, it just hit me that you could have commandeered a C-130 and got your truck yourself.

Thanks! Still a few more years before retirement. The countdown is on, though. C-130? I was trying to get a C-17. Faster, after all. Didn't pan out.

And THANK YOU for your service too Bob!!!
If there was an emoji that saluted you, imagine it here. They have a tank emoji so I guess that's as close as I can get for you.
Its sad, they have a gangbanger drive by shooting emoji,
, and one that flips people off but no salute or flag emoji.

COTUS shows mine as delivered this morning. I drove by the dealer on the way home last night and it wasn't there at 5 PM. Hopefully I will hear from my salesguy today to arrange PDI and paperwork.

It had an ETA of delivery of 9-27 but once that date passed it just had 0 days until delivery and no ETA. I talked to my dealer last Friday and the truck was in Benecia ( less than 2 hours away) and it would most likely be here Monday-Wedesday. Now it is Friday and at 9 am this morning the COTUS updated to an eta of 10-29 and 29 days left.
I have called my dealer for an explanation but haven't received an answer yet.
What you guys think? Damaged during transportation possibly? Frustrated....
