Planned retirement

Well it happened. Friday 13, 2013, I purchased a vehicle to retire the Jimmy. No quick retirement just yet. I plan to keep it until Feb-Mar. It practically sold on the same day to a friend who was helping me drive it back from Corpus Christi.
The replacement is an '08 Dodge Nitro 3.7L with <56,000 miles on it. The Jimmy runs so good, I couldn't keep up at 75-78 MPH. After ~140 miles, I was 2 miles behind the Jimmy!! Damn it runs good. In the mean time, the Jimmy is my work ride for most of the week. Traffic is bad but car and truck drivers respect that hitch sticking out the back.
