Great deal, but I think we are all just a little bit jealous. OK, maybe a lot!

Good job. So did she say something like "how can I ever repay you" and then you say "with that truck over there"?

That seriously disproves the old axiom of; "No good deed shall go unpunished."

It was good of you to help the youngster, & congrats on getting the truck.
