Stand-In Wife
““Three liter, four-cylinder,” said Dan. “Turbo.”

“That explains the reinforced steel cage and bull bars.” Ross teased Jo mercilessly about her driving.
His buddy laughed. “Torque peaks at 1800 rpm which gives it great lugging power. Hau...ls up to 3000 kg.”

“Pretty good. Wishbones and coil springs up-front…solid axle and leaf springs rear.”
“Shame the model’s got a hood like a storm trooper’s helmet.”
“You’re just jealous.”
God it was good to relax his guard. Talk about stuff that wasn’t loaded with moral dilemmas.MoreLess
