The Work Car

My once faithful old companion of a car is getting... unreliable.  So I'm looking at new rides.  Something bare-bones, cheap, but capable of hauling LOTS - everything from armchairs to deer heads to bags of leaves.  I'm leaning toward the Honda Element... mostly because its shoe box on wheels styling, fold-away seats, and rubber floor mats seem perfect for my needs.  (Easier to sweep leaves off rubber than carpet!)

I hate car shopping.  It's especially un-fun right now because the salesmen are especially hungry.  There's a definite feeling of Baby-needs-new-shoes urgency to some of them that makes me uncomfortable.

Tomorrow's the big Tire Kicking Day.
