Shortly after I posted my rant about the washer/dryer delivery people, I had a revelation:
I live in Texas. Approximately 893 (give or take a few) of my closest friends drive trucks.
While normally I quietly judge my truck-driving friends for their unnecessarily large eco-footprints, there comes a time when a gal has to swallow her pride and admit that trucks come in handy sometimes. Interestingly enough, that time comes when the gal needs large pieces of furniture delivered to her house.*
