faaack...my ranger is totaled.  deciding tonight to keep less $ and fix it on salvage title or go buy something new.   G thinking we should do both...fix it cheap to pass inspection so we always have a beater truck and an extra vehicle to loan to my folks from time to time, and go buy something new.

how come when it's time to buy a new car it's always the wrong financial time and you can't quite get what you want... but when you have $ it makes no sense to go buy a car?

we had been looking at a used 911/4, but $ into the new office building makes that not practical.     debating mini or miata to balance out the truck-heavy household.  maybe wrangler.

Anyone who owns a house should have a beater truck.
And you should certainly get a 911, it can fit at least 3 bags of groceries on the back seats so that makes it practical.  [thumbsup]

Sorry to hear Statler.

I would agree with G.  Keep the truck and buy something else.

If we all chip in a dollar, we can buy him a picture of a Bugatti Veyron.

Or...  If you are looking for something like a cheap run about sport car: find a well maintained S2000 with about 20K miles on it.  Those cars are wicked capable and you probably won't have more fun on four wheels unless you pony up for that Porsche, or a Lotus Elise.

G just mentioned another option...

keep the truck, fix it cheap on the slavage title, but not get anything yet...

then in 6 months get a used elise.  (she'd start her magic savings)

I love her.
;D

I'll let you know what we decide.  we have a few days.

I saw a lease for $199 a month
Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

EverNing, EveryBody.

For some strange reason, I have this craving for banana bread.  [drool]
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Spent 2600 miles in a Miata. Get one.
