The Phantom Menace Redux
In the previous post I talked about stumbling across a #BarnFind #craigslist ad that simply stated "1973 Volkswagen." I shot off an email and got a text response from the owner's daughter, Hannah.

Trucks, the bro kind.
Bro trucks Bro, your truck, it's so big. It's like one of those country singer trucks. So I get that some people love big things. In America everything is larger. Supersize meals, triple venti mocha pumpkin spice lattes, 140" television screens for a 1000 square foot apartment. The list goes on and on. It's not … Continue reading Trucks, the bro kind.
