February 20, 2026

                Good morning to all, the weather is supposed to be cooler today. We hope you have a good day.

Yesterday's events: I did not get a cup of real coffee yesterday as the top of my mouth is hurting from the coffee that burnt my mouth a couple days ago. I made a cup of coffee here at the homestead and I let it set until it was very cool. Cool coffee did not hurt my mouth. About 10:00am I headed to the bank to see if they would give me some money (aka cashers check). They did not give me a check, it cost $3.00.

Check in hand, I went to the dealership to consider purchasing a new vehicle. We got in the vehicle and went for a drive. At some point during the drive, I must have gotten too close to something as the driver's seat vibrated. I was told it was the device in the seat that was there to warn the driver. I like the safety devices in the vehicle, if I can learn how to use them all.  

When the drive was over we did a bunch of things like paperwork and calling the insurance people.  The dealer washed the vehicle and filled it with gas. Speaking of gas, I have not seen a gas gage, they do show how many mile you can travel on the gas, so I guess that it the gas gage.

They took the check and told me that I had overpaid $93.00. They had told me what the entire amount would be so why didn't they give me the right amount.

I was there for several hours and I did get tired. They have put the vehicle info on my phone so you can start, lock or unlock it from anywhere. In doing that they took my pickup off my phone. Now I am unhappy.

Any way I drove it home and it is comfortable. At home my favorite wife came out and got in so we took a short ride. While we were driving, we stopped at a chicken salad place and I purchased supper.

Now I need to learn how to use the touch screen and other things like the hearted steering wheel and heated seats, lane change emergency stops etc. Maybe it is too much for an ole senior person.

The vehicle does not have a complete instruction book, there is a short version but it does not cover much. They have an online instruction book and you can order a paper version. Photo to follow.


 

                Well, I guess I should stop for now and rest from the work I have put into this posting. We hope you have a good day and stay safe in all you do.

                Don the Ford

May today be better than your best day, but not as good as tomorrow.
