The Pick-me-up truck

I took my new RAV4 in today to have the hitch installed. A 2 hour job, they said. I also took my bike and rode 24 miles during that 2 hours instead of sitting in their waiting area. Well, the 2 hour job still wasn't near being finished at the 4 1/2 hour mark, so I got a loaner to get me back home. Of course, I needed a vehicle that would allow me to transport my bike back home, too, and the only such loaner available was the biggest honking pick-me-up truck I've ever been in -- a shiny red 4 door, 4WD, loaded with extras Toyota Tacoma with 5.7 liter engine. Wow! What a machine it is! Another new adventure for Chuck! (But, no, I won't trade my RAV4 for it.)
