Let's Try This Again!
Good Morning! It had to be multi-purpose! It's first job, to get the pups home from the Vet in the crate they were delivered in! I ended up not getting the rental car... had driven the Xterra home from he shop, to the store and back etc etc. Instead, I left an hour early with a back up plan. I didn't really expect to purchase the first day out but I wanted the Xterra present just in case. I drove some F-150's and loved them. I drove a Tundra and looked at the Tacoma. Never planned to go to Nissan but as it turns out, it was my last stop and where I parted ways with the Xterra. In the end, the Frontier fits my needs. Although small, my preference for mileage and parking, it's got a 6500 pound towing capacity which will suffice for towing my horse trailer. It's got a bed for hauling plywood etc. And a built-in flip out and down tailgate extender for hauling kayaks etc and can accommodate 5 people. But most importantly at the moment of purchase the back seat area was large enough to accommodate the crate.
I was in the process of paperwork, watching the clock with mind going 1000 mile a minute, considering the need to stop midway in the process to go get a smaller crate. Clayton, my salesman equip with measuring tape, continued to insist the one I had would fit. As time ticked away, feeling stressed, I told them I was going to have put everything on hold, go pick up the pups and would come back. Clayton asked me if I was sure I would make it in the Xterra stating "I started it up"! LOL!!! I asked if they would tow it back if I didn't make it... he said it might end up being the case! As it turns out, in a rush, we emptied the contents of the crate (shavings) into the back of the Xterra alongside the rest of the mess it had become... embarrassing really...! And he fit the crate, which fit like a glove I might ad, into the back of the Frontier. Five minutes later I was on my way, feeling strong, with a promise to return to finish up the deal! Phew! Another job done with about 5 minutes to spare!
