Why do you want to take your truck?

Actually the name Kemosabe is butchered Spanish for "quien sabe" which translates as "who knows?' and Tonto translates to foolish or stupid.

Or more probably, "Quien no sabe", mean who doesn't know that.

What does the Spanish translation have to do with anything ?

We took the truck. I told you I'm more comfortable with it.

Since the Lone Ranger wore a mask and no one knew who he was, he was "who knows"

Perhaps it has to do with the portion of North America portrayed in the popular Lone Ranger series, the southwestern United States. Spanish-speaking people were living here a few generations before the Continental Congress was convened, way before the American Revolution, a couple of hundred years before the Louisiana Purchase secured much of that land for the United States. Many of the southwestern Indian tribes were (and are today) fluent in Spanish, either by force or the necessities of existence during the 17th, 18th, and 19th Centuries. Some of the tribal areas span the border and include portions of both Mexico and the modern USA (as is the case on the northern border with Canada as well, although the language crossover is French in those areas).

Spanish language remains the first language of many people in the southwestern US and is in regular usage to this day.

Spanish language and culture are a huge part of our national heritage.

Add the 16th century as well. My grandchildren's family emigrated to Santa Fe, New Spain in the early 1500's.

Santa Fe was the administrative capitol of New Spain before the nation of Mexico existed and much of the western Hemisphere existed as Spanish colonies.

To stay on topic with this thread, I usually drive my truck when going to Santa Fe!

While I love the craftsmanship, I think a few speedloaders instead of the flasks would be a better idea.

Just saying...

After 10-12 misses, you may as well go back to drinking lol
