It's ok, you guys can be jealous, I'll still let you ride in it...

How nice a car do you want to drive in the city? It beats walking.

Don't get me wrong, I was just having some fun. I LOVE this car. It get's about 25 mpg in heavy city traffic. It's a perfect city car. And after not having my own car for 4 years it's like I'm 17 again.

I walk about 90% of the time. 5 days a week, to and from work rain or shine. I found myself renting a car once or twice a month or taking really expensive cab rides out to the suburbs so after buying it for a couple hundred bucks and paying $200 a year for insurance it's still less than I was spending monthly on cabs alone. And not having to inconvenience my wife by making her get a ride to work when I needed our "real" wheels is priceless.
