Just bought another car.

OK, bought a Hyundai Accent for teh little lady...someone please shoot me.

at least I wont be paying for it, or at least I am not supposed to be paying for it. Unfortunately, it is the only thing cheap enough for her price range.....cant get much cheaper than hyundais base model car, besides a KIA....I am totally against this car, and hope to GOD I can get this thing out of her and our hands within a year and get her into a real car or truck...I dont understand it....she has a 85 Chevy shortbed that jsut needs a bit of work...I am gonna try and get htat fixed here next month if I can. At least give me another vehicle to wrench on, as if the 4 I have right now arent enough....I just dont feel safe with her driving around in a plastic box with so called 'crumple' zones.....as the saying goes for us Ford Truck guys.....The KIA in front and the Hyundai behind me are my crumple zones......now that is her.
