Dad left behind a six year-old F150 with too many miles and a loan. He wanted to sell it, but he was upside-down on the loan. He passed, we called the bank and asked if they wanted us to drop off the truck, they refused to talk to us, and then took it during the night.

I wonder how much he paid on the truck after he took it back from his friend and employee that drove 100,000 miles in a year instead of completing projects.

I am sure that insurance and registration were less than the remainder of the loan.

He also had a Focus SFE we wished we could have kept, but we couldn't afford the payments.

The dash said 50 MPG, but it dropped while I drove it as carefully as I could.

He had chains. Those are usually good enough, right?
