My friend Cyndi has the greatest truck in the world. I really have to hand it to her for keeping this one alive for so long. She got the truck for free and she has certainly made use of it.
There are many things in this car that don't work, but it gets great mileage and she is keeping another car from going to the car graveyard. She thinks that I am making fun of her but in all reality I LOVE the fact that she keeps this vehicle alive. Heck I would do it if I knew anything about automobile mechanics. Let me give you some stats. This baby is a 1991 Nissan Pick-up. It has 300,000 miles on it. It is a 4 cylinder with a 5 speed manual transmission. It was a farm truck that her parents bought from the church and she believes that is the reason it still runs. The speedometer and the gas gage stopped working a while back so she has put some pictures of her nieces in front of them so she has something to look at.
Let me just vouch for the sound system in this baby because it rocks! Don't worry about the fact that the muffler is tied on with a wire and that your seatbelt may just mysteriously unclick while you are riding with her. She swears that it is going to work when it needs to. If you want to know how this baby passed imissions testing you are going to have to ask Cyni directly about that. She is always prepared for what might happen. She has two spare tires in the back along with jumper cables and a gas can.
Another testament to Nissan trucks is that her friend Anna Jo drives one too. Here is a picture of the "Yellow Banana". That baby is a 1986. The odometer stopped working at 170,000 but there is an estimated 200,000 miles on that baby. Notice Cyndi's truck in the back-ground.
The last thing to mention is that the passenger door handle doesn't work. It now only opens from the inside but it used to only open from the outside. I loved hearing about when she would give her guy friends a ride and then she would need to walk around the truck to let the guy out. As you can see the window knob falls off so it is neatly tucked into the duck tapped handle.
Cyndi you are my HERO!!!
