Yesterday, my wife finally had to put some gas in her new car.  Eight more days and she would have made it 2 months on a tank of gas.  She had 4 gal. left, so she probably could have made it.
Sounds like she didn't need a new one that bad.
She only drives it in Reverse, so she can watch that new TV channel "Backup Camera"!  8)
Wasn't gas mileage one of your purchase considerations?
She's scared to use the backup camera, but she seems to be catching on.  It turns out that the gas mileage is very bad when you only drive 9 blocks at a time.  I really thought it would get the city gas mileage rating of 28 (I think), but when you only make short 9 block trips with 3 stop signs, it turns out to be around 16 to 17 mpg.
Used to get 40 mpg without fail from a VW Diesel Rabbit.

Her old car was dead, 20 years old, and needed about $4,500 in repairs.  And she just refused to walk those 9 blocks to work.

Howdy CB and Bean...  It's funny how the wife has been very nice to me after getting her that car.  Before, we were fighting allot, and after we got it, we haven't had on fight for the past 2 months.  I honestly didn't see that coming.

What's that got to do with the piece off eggs?   I used to get 7 mpg in my hot rod but it only cost 29 cents a gallon for premium then so could fill up for $6.

Probably to piss me off but I am not sure my boss had any idea what it really was and I sure did not until I got there.  It is supposed to be about city transportation but this is a group of about 20 large far left metro areas trying to claim bicycles and feet are transportation.  BLOOMBERG!!!

I had two VW Bugs.  A 1965 when I was a kid, and bought a new one in 1974 for $2,495.  I should have bought a bunch of the 1974's and kept them as spares.

Well we spent a half hour reading the 590 page new car owners manual trying to figure out that it took 89 octane gas, and read another hour to figure out how to reset the trip odometer after we got the gas... ugh...!  Does that count as couples entertainment...?
