This vehicle is the means by which everything comes to and goes from the CCM home. It is used to get the kids to school, church and medical appointments. To transport drinking water, groceries and fuel. To socialize with other adopted and missionary kids. And to transport Joyce to meetings to help the mission effectively keep up with all that IBESR requires. Roads are rough in Haiti and they take their toll on all vehicles no matter how durable. Vehicles need regular preventative maintenance, annual brake, tire and clutch replacements, registration, and of course fuel at over $5 a gallon. Estimated costs to run the CCM Land Cruiser for one year are $5,000.
