Only 19K on my 2010 Wrangler. Had thoughts about Craigslisting it and getting something further up the ladder. Maybe a newer Wrangler with the Pentastar V6.

Have had ha-ha-only-serious thoughts about the new Corvette Stingray, but it'd be a suicide mission to drive in the winter.

I've got almost 15k on my 2013 Fusion now. About 28-30 MPG in the summer, 26 in the winter. Nice car, but my 4x4 Ranger that it replaced was a much better fit for me.

Hey, what a coincidence, I got the same thing just last month, Premium level (it's the base, but they don't want to call it that) with convenience package 1 and a moon roof. I hope you enjoy it, I'm liking mine so far. It was real solid in the snow storm we had that first week I had it.

I got the Limited with the moonroof/nav package. It's loaded with stuff. Looking forward to it... but the snow trials can wait until next winter!

Yeah, the summer MPG is more than double what my Jimmy got, especially on 50-55 MPH roads. Winter is worse, due to warm-up time and the winter gas mix, but still averages 24-25.

Not a good day. My cousin got in an accident last night and was killed instantly. Just a freak accident with nothing stupid going on like drinking and driving. Several lodge members had met him, and I think he probably left a bit of an impression. Spent all day at my aunt's house, everyone doing quite a bit of crying. Half the town came to visit. The local school is donating the use of the high school gym for the visitation, as there will literally be many hundreds of people there. The kicker, about 5 hours before his accident, his big sister gave birth to a baby boy, my aunt's first grandchild, my grandpa's first great-grandchild. She had to be woken up after giving birth to be told that her little brother will never meet his nephew.

Sometimes life really ****ing sucks.

I never met him, I don't think, but saw your FB and Lost Highway's FB, and went scouring the net to find out what was going on. Rubette and I send our deepest condolences.

Ah, ok. It was driving me nuts that I didn't fully know him off the bat. Seemed so familiar. Either way....it's terrible. Just terrible.
