Howdy folks; The night before Halloween, we had a fairly bad rainstorm up here in the Portland/Vancouver area. I bottomed-out my 2001 VW New Beetle fairly hard, causing considerable damage. My insurance company's adjuster decided that it would cost more to repair it than it was worth, cut me a check on the spot, and then went on his merry way. The GOOD news was that they paid out a lot more for it than I'd guessed a 15-year-old Bug was worth. I immediately put it all as a down payment on my new baby, a 2016 Jeep Patriot Sport (shown here, with me and my ACTUAL baby, my daughter):  We've named him "The General" (after General Grievous. The grill and headlights remind me of his face). Factory-fresh, and only 2 miles on the odometer when this picture was taken. I test drove a gray Patriot, but decided that I liked the dark blue best out of the colors that they had available (blue, gray, red & green). So what are YOU driving at the moment? |

I've got a 2013 Toyota Prius in charcoal and I love it. It's not the most stylish of vehicles, but the money I save in gas on a monthly basis more than covers my car payment. At the current prices, I can fill the tank from empty for just shy of $20, and that will last me nearly a month. When it comes to vehicles, it's substance over style for me, and you can't beat averaging 52-55 MPG.
I'll be trading it in for one of the pretty new Prius' in April. Probably in white this time.

I don't drive. I don't need to. Everything is pretty handy and easy for me to get to living in the city. Whenever I do need to travel, I'll just jump a train or catch a taxi. For me, having a car would be much more expensive so I'm very happy with not having the responsibility of owning a car. It's an excessive expense that I just don't need.  |
