Limo Truck

Shane has spent the last few weeks working on the truck Don brought home for him.  One weekend they replaced the intake manifold and heater core.  Belle liked helping her Daddy. I personally have never been able to work on an engine while wearing a dress so this is impressive to me. 

After successfully getting the truck running again, Shane started working on the inside.  He took out ALL of the seats and shampooed the cushions.  He ripped out the carpeting and stinky pad that was underneath and replaced it with rubber flooring.  He also cleaned up the whole dashboard and all the doors...it smells so much better in there now!  And no mousetraps! Yay!  We drove the truck most of the weekend and it ran great.  It was so funny to me how excited the girls would get when they knew we were taking the "family truck." 

Shane ordered new seat covers for the front seat which have not come yet so he hasn't put the passenger seat back in.  Until the seat covers come, I get to ride in the back with the girls.  I have tons of leg room and get to look straight out the front window...very nice. It does feel a little strange though when we drive it without the girls...I'm in the back and Shane is in the front.  It's our version of a limo truck and I feel like I'm being chauffeured.  Unfortunately, it's usually to places like Walmart and Costco for groceries but still fun!
