think im growing up?????

well this weekend i made a rather bland car purchase......... i have been driving a company issued service truck to and from work for the last 2 yrs so gas and dependability have not been much of a priority in life. I am going to be making a career change in the near future and in preparation I decided that I am going to be needing a newer, dependable, more economical mode of transportation.

I was currently driving a 91 dakota, short box, short cab with the 5.2 la engine. The truck was in very good running condition and was in reality a bit of a hot rod. it got 12mpg at best.

I ended up trading it in (got $1500) on a 2012 sentra with 12k miles on the clock. car gets 36mpg and is a 4 door sedan. about as economical and cheaply insured as they come.

needless to say driving the car doesn't inspire any sort of joy but it will serve its purpose in life.
