"Old Faithful" is finally repaired. She needed a new water pump and heater core, among other small repairs.
My son's car is at it's end. His plan is to junk the entire car for cash. He can put that cash towards a new one when he gets a job and can purchase one.
But in the meantime, he needs a way to get to work. We are in the boonies, and a bicycle is in no way, an option.
So, he and and plan to share old "Eunice" until he can do that.
As we put our truck "Old Faithful" up for sale, we are sending the van back over for more repairs (again). It's not been driven for a year now, and still needs a new battery (the plan is to keep the battery from my son's junked car).
Once those repairs are completed, it will be up for sale too. We both agreed.
The sale of the truck and van, and eventually the Buick my son and will share, will buy us one new vehicle that I can drive, and be used for all the farm hauling - a truck.
Or, we sell the van and car, and keep the truck for farm hauling - plan B.
Those are the plans anyway. I still have another 16 year-old in training, and will need a car, but that will have to be put on the "wish" list for now.
First things first....
