Lucas with the lid off…

I sold my car tonight. Earlier today, a guy who had test-driven it last week called me and said he’d give me $1,000 for it, and I accepted, so he was going to come by tomorrow and get it. But a little before 10:00 tonight, the guy who had given me the $100 to hold the car for him until last Friday came by and gave me the full $1,200. I didn’t really expect him to come up with the money, and I figured if he wasn’t here by the time the other guy got here tomorrow then he wasn’t coming at all. I’m just glad he came.
So now I’ve got $1,200 to fix my truck, and hopefully I can get it done pretty soon. I’m not sure whether I should go to either of my wife’s uncles–’cause both of them would give me a good deal–or if I should go to the Ford dealer, ’cause I know their work will be better and have a better warranty–but then I’ll pay out the ass.
