In not very exciting news outside of my parking spot.
Do you know what its like to own a 2004 Saturn Ion?
I do.
Just made my last payment. I don't know if I'll ever buy another new car.
I haven't forgotten that turning the ignition on my old cars was like pulling the handle on a slot machine.
Never quite sure if they would start, and never really surprised when they didn't.
Those cars got me to work late, and ended dates early. As much as I loved them and could relate to their unreliability...I hated them for it.
I like knowing the complete history of my car. I like not knowing exactly where the jumper cables are.
Yeah, I'll buy new again. Hopefully another Saturn. But not until a drive this car for every penny that its worth.
