It can haul about 20 small bags of chips in the trunk! Very practical if you fill vending machines for a living.

I'm 45, so everyone for making me feel young.

The first car I bought with my own money was a 91 Toyota MR2 Turbo. When a Nissan Pathfinder totaled that, I got a 2002 Subaru WRX. I went astray for a while with a couple of boring sedans during the kid hauling years, but now that the kids have their own car the BRZ seemed like a logical next step.

MomHawk and I recently had this conversation. I was explaining to her that I must be starting to feel my age because I want both a Corvette and V series Cadillac.

She suggested I review our checkbook. Always knows just what to say.
