Anita, thanks. And sorry about sparring with ya a bit before... Authority just brings out the rebel in me.
All is not lost... I went all the way up to Seattle this afternoon and got me a new lady. A '91 Eagle Talon TSi AWD with 82k miles. Got a great deal too. Put my foot down, drew a line in the sand and dealer said "okie dokie".
Ahhhh... no more car payments. I feel free... almost.
