Honey, I Shrunk My Car!

On Wednesday night last week, I finally got a "new" car.  I went to look at it and decided to get it over the weekend, but then it had an inspection (which I'm glad I had done and didn't have to pay for) because it needed a new tire and then windshield wipers.  I am now insured and driving along in my 1989 Toyota Corolla (manual).  Now $30 fills it to half instead of under 1/4 tank of fuel!  It still takes premium, unfortunately, because it's so old, but at least it will get WAY better milage and be much more economical!  Basically, it's like a savings account here, and when I go home, I can sell it, most-likely for more than I purchased it for, since Jacques' dad helped me find it through one of his wholesaler friends.   Just because it was something new in the driveway, all the kids just thought it was the coolest thing! Nicest car of the family!
