Gotta Grow Up!

This was my car in the morning around the middle of August, not so long ago. It was my second car, same color, same everything except 5 years newer than the first one I had. Well, after much discussion and thinking about the number of times I filled the gas tank each week (yes, it was more than once a week), we knew we had to do something....

So this is the car I drove home with (and a check in my pocket) later that day. A nice little Kia Spectra 5 is much nicer on the pocketbook at the gas station.

Which of course, translates into many more fat quarters, too!

Wow - when you make a change, you make a change! Look at that bright, cheery color! Enjoy your gas savings... I was paying $3.25 per gallon in July on Cape Cod -ouch!

Cheers!

Super!! Enjoy the new car and all those savings! You'd probably faint if you saw the price of gas at the station across the street from my apartment here in Finland!!

What a great car. Save your money you would of used on gas to buy fabric.

Wow! Tell me about filling those tanks! I fill up at least twice if not 3 times a week with my commute. Which is why I"ve started trying to work from home on days I can!
