In the
spring of 1983 I bought a brand new Ford Explorer Sport. I had not
had a car of my own since 1989 when I sold my ’76 Chevy van before
moving to Virginia. Julie and I had been sharing the Volvo, which
worked out quite well since we both worked together at ICL. The
Sport was the two-door model of the Explorer which suited me quite
well and the four wheel drive came in handy on days that it snowed.
It was a great vehicle.
