I'm car shopping. Online. Craigslist, Autotrader, Recycler, etc. Looking for a "beater" auto trans car so I can drive for the next month or three while my leg heals. Depressing. I don't have a lot of cash lying around, so I'm looking int he $2-3K range. Considering a BMW because at least it will be mildly entertaining to drive (rear wheel drive is a good thing) and my shop works on BMWs. Otherwise it is Honda/Toyota/etc. But man, most of these cars are so tired and beat. Poster children for deferred maintenance. And now everybody and their brother is a "dealer", as it seems that most cars get sold to Sammy Shyster so he can mark it up and lie about the history of the car. No thanks. I'll keep hunting for a car from an actual person that has the service history. And maybe a personal history. Cars have karma too...and I could use some.
Of course there also is the lease swapping route...hmm...
