New family truckster

Well finally came up with the decision and I thought never in a million
years would have one. But the mrs and I finally agreed on an ex demo 07
Territory AWD TX. So far we looked at a few cars for a few months.

And considering kid # 2 is on its way we needed something that is
practical and has handy storage compartments (Territory has tons of the
buggers). We looked at the Mondeo hatch, Liberty wagon, Forrester even a
Captiva V6 for god sakes. :-)

A Territory turbo would of been nice but can't trust the mrs with it. :-)
But the base Territory is more like the better buy. It might be an insane
buying decision ;-) but then again the Camry sedan isn't going to cut it
no more for practicality reasons. Or maybe a second hand Denning coach
would really cut the mustard.

Im still going to get my SS-V wagon though that aint going to get
scrubbed off the list anytime soon. :-)

Fuck why am I telling you all this it since you wouldn't give a fuck. ;-)

Yeah although with the Denning Coach I could run it on home brew bio
Diesel. And scare the kids with the bark of the jake brake. ;-)

Yeah although there is a fair few things that she said no to so most of
my dreams have been crushed. :-)

Since my mrs is pregnant sex and all that goes down the gurgler really.
But if I beg long enough! I might get some.

Nice, but did you specifically want an AWD version?

I'll be getting one myself in a few months, and I'll be looking for a 2wd
variant as it's around 250kg lighter and does a little better on fuel. That
said, if an AWD version cropped up at a bargain price I wouldn't knock it
back,

They're a great family hack and you won't be disappointed.

Lol :)

That's like finding out when your wife says "Just do whatever the fuck you
like" she doesn't *really* mean that at all :)
