RX8 and a Truk....

Best Rental I've had yet, from Mazda.
Today I dropped my car off at the dealer - seems w/ the new engine I ALSO got the 137whp-Mod by mistake. They're going to 'look at it'.
So - I was escorted to Enterprise Rentals, and picked out a Nissan Armada. VERY COOL truck. On the way home I drove on to post (I work on a Military Installation) and hit the back roads:

I pulled over for a couple quick photos:

The truck is REALLY fun to drive - I could SERIOUSLY consider owning this rig. I've got the stripped version; but Eight? Passenger seating is a PLUS...the V8 is WONDERFUL. It's a little 'low' for my tastes in a truck, but a pleasure to drive.

Yeah, can't say I'm a fan of any SUV, and that one's no exception. Also, I agree, what's with the bolding? It doesn't seem to spell anything out, as far as I can tell. I'm confused.

I like most everything about the truck - in the process of trying to convince my wife to trade in her SuperCrew F150 for an armada. She doesn't want to why? Cuz our friends have a silver armada, too

Yeah it was the first year blues. They since fixed the problems. I don't know guys, Im not a truck kind of guy, but this Armada is giving me a bit of a stiffy.

Yeah, great. But it can`t compare to my red 4 door Yaris I got now. Got here to Quebec (it`s winter carnival time!) yesterday...people laughed at me at the office...I told them it`s all they had left...they still laughed...can`t wait to go home.
