New pickup

[goeduck]

It will be there soon enough and the days will be longer (a little anyway) when it gets there to drool over it.:thumbsup:

But maybe go to the dealer and guilt them into some extra features to compensate you for your sleepless nights, pain and suffering.

geoduck - you mean like the very nice Power Wagon jacket and bb hat they will be giving me. It will go well with my leather, canvas & Levi Harley Davidson collection( 5 jackets). And the collection I'm currently building with my BMW( only 2, so far).

That's OK. This will be the third vehicle I have purchased from this dealership. They have always treated me fairly. I know this will continue.

I have my friend, Jack Daniels, for pain. No fools around this area - so I don't suffer much.

As far as being patient - NO, I'm really not a patient person. However, if I want this truck, what else can I do. There are no other dealers in Ea WA with a PW. I saw there is a dealer in CO with EIGHTEEN power wagons on his lot. But I'm the kind of person - If I buy from John, I will go back to John for service. I would feel guilty - buying in CO and asking for service in Spokane.

Not that it matters, but I can now completely understand why you're waiting. I forgot where Spokane was.

Thanks Sigarms. My location is fantastic, EXCEPT - I'm right in the middle of nothing when it comes having multiple dealers, suppliers, stores for just about everything. I envy those who say they shopped at multiple dealers, got multiple prices for just about everything. I buy a lot of my supplies off the internet. Not because it's cheaper - because there is nowhere to find a "brick & mortar" that carries the supplies.

The only other person that could possibly be more remote - - Doofy, up in Glennallen, AK. Or the fellow TBNer from Kodiak Is, AK.

Hey oosik,

I have to ask, why would someone want to use a "handle", of a "walrus dong"?? You aren't aprick are you? lol lol

I bet most of the folks here don't even know what an oosik is... lol

Right, oosik looked like something from his time in Alaska, so I looked it up last week:

 

[Sawyer Rob]

I knew what it was/is, I think I lived in Alaska longer than he did... Quite a few folks there have them as collectables... lol

[oosik]

:laughing:Well, this is the "story" on the OOSIK. Alaska eskimos hunt seal & walrus. They use EVERYTHING on both animals for some purpose or other. The only use for the oosik was as a tourist collectable. Since I've always been hooked on cribbage. Mine is fashioned into a cribbage board.

SR - I was in AK from 1960 to 1982. 1960 - 1965 - summer employment while getting my bachelors degree. 1965 -1982 as Director of Environmental Health, Anchorage.

Where were you and doing what, when in AK?

And it took Xfaxman to "spill the beans" -:laughing: :dance1:

 

[ultrarunner]

And here I thought it was of Norwegian origin...

 

[oosik]

The Norwegians probably DO have a use. Likewise, it's probably not fit for print. Uff da
