Tim decided it was time to consider getting a new work vehicle since he’s doing so much more driving now. The truck was great when he was working in the field, but now he’s transitioned to doing mostly the bidding so he’s driving all over the cities and his truck didn’t have the best gas mileage. So, it was out with the truck and in with…
The cube!
Yup. It’s about as opposite from his truck as you could possibly get. But in his defense, he didn’t go looking for this vehicle–nor would it have been his first choice (I’m betting!). It turns out the couple (Steve & Sherry) that used to co-own the business with him has since moved to South Carolina and Steve used to use the cube to do bids back then… and was looking to sell it! How convenient for us that he was looking to sell it at the same time that Tim was looking to buy a small vehicle. And it’s so nice to have the piece of mind knowing the previous owner and the vehicle history when buying a used car…
So, now the cube sits in our driveway. It’s surprisingly spacious. Although it does feel a bit like a go cart to drive since you’re so low to the ground. The kids think it’s pretty cool.
Very cute. And it already has the sign on the doors, so that saves that expense, too. And much better gas mileage to boot. I suppose it does feel really small compared to the truck or the van.
