Re: look what i got for free
Good job. So did she say something like "how can I ever repay you" and then you say "with that truck over there"?

Good things come in return for good deeds. I need to do more good deeds
Seriously glad you were able to help her nephew out of danger.

Re: look what i got for free
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.

That is a nice looking truck. Those bed rails look like the roof rack on my suburban.
