Mission Accomplished
After a long, grueling day I am now the proud owner of a Silver 1999 Honda Accord LX. Here's an example of what my car looks like... I'll post real pictures in the next day or so.
CAR
I learned today that when how-to lists tell you to have your own mechanic inspect a used car before you buy it, they're not blowing smoke up your butt. You can't really trust anyone!
The first car we looked at looked perfectly fine from the outside on nearly all accounts. But when our mechanic took a look underneath, the entire bottom was covered with rust - on a car with only 56,000 miles this was totally unacceptable. I noticed tonight they've already dropped their asking price on the car by $1,100.
So I wound up with the Accord, which is by far a better car than the first. I need a name for it though, so if you have any ideas, let me know :-)
