The truck they wanted at first was well over a million dollars. They, however, would settle for the "cheap" one.<img src="http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/smileys/smiley9.gif" height="17" width="17" border="0" alt="Embarrassed" />&nbsp;HAPPY THANKSGIVING!]]>

It won't happen again. <br /><br />]]>
