The Uppsala Lastbil

That's Swedish for truck.

This was our rental car for getting across the country. We were supposed to have an Explorer, but you know, options are limited in Pullman so we got the Dodge Nitro, which was the largest of the SUV's they had. We needed something that would be roomy enough for us, Jax, and everything we may need for the potentially the next two years. So you can see how loaded we had it. That's four full size suitcases by the way. We get 70lbs each for international flights and we are going to use every one of them.
The Nitro at the little yellow farmhouse in Bozeman.

Colorado plates, Pat and Ragen's dad dubbed this a good sign.
Jax.
Look how stuffed. Jax is hiding.

Still stuffed. Jax not hiding.

So the Nitro was good. I liked it. It had crazy head space, but the doors were low so you had to go in head first, weird. The passenger side door was a little off, didn't line up the right way but it worked. It was a good car, very rugged. Ragen thinks it looked like a toy truck. Jax seemed ok with it, even though he needed a lift to get in most days.
