I  bought a 96 Chevy Blazer that had 50K miles, in 2000 from a doctor here in town, who didn't have room for it in his four-vehicle garage.  Life's a bitch ain't it?  ;D
It has had it's share of major surgeries over the years, new fuel pump, new alternator, surgery on the A/C , which is now broken...again, and just a couple years ago, a complete engine
tear down as it had a cracked head.....$1600 surgery there.  Of course a couple set of new tires over the years.

But it will turn 150K miles perhaps as soon as next week, and is my ride, and with economy the way it is, don't see myself stepping back into auto payments for at least a year or two yet.
Paid this one off in 2005.

Other transportation for me besides my feet is a Specialized Hard Rock mountain bike I bought for my 40th birthday (1998).  Love that thing.....still take it out blazing around trails when the
weather is nice.  Even ride it to work when the Chevy has surgeries.  :D

poor guy!

ok 40th birthday in 1998, subtract this year, carry the three....good lort!! you're 38!! oh wait...that isn't right....

And notice with Kerry's Charade.......the steering wheel is on the right hand side.
Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection
