crazychicknladyWe burned up most of a Saturday, but H found a car. 2012 (11 years newer than her truck), 97,000 miles (about 100,000 fewer miles than her truck), and a manual.
She's still driving Lizard (our little loaner truck), until M helps her sort out the insurance on Monday, but it's done.
If all goes as planned, the junk car folks will haul off the carcass of H's old truck on Monday.
One of M's coworkers is incredibly amused by our tendency to drive cars till their wheels fall off (I had that literally happen once). But, after spending a day car shopping, the reason is obvious; why would we want to go through that experience more often than strictly necessary.
