Default Talk about luck...
Well....how about having two cars get totalled in 6 months - first my wife's minivan, now this past friday morning my Saab (RIP "Cecil") gets rear-ended when I slow down for some construction...car in back of me doesn't slow down at all, crushes Cecil's rear end and pushes me into the car in front...as with the last accident everyone is fine...just a hassle to deal with...

Worst part of it all is that my Baitrunner 3500 was in the trunk!!!! I'm more upset about that than the car Lost that and a 7ft ugly stick.....another trip to cabelas or Bass pro

And no - not able to get a 4X4 this time either - this is my commuter car - gettin something with over 30mpg for my 100 mile/day commute... soo goodbye Cecil, my faithful quirky swedish friend...hello....econobox...

Steve,

Sorry to hear about the car, but glad noone was hurt. 100 mi/day is a rough commute. That's tough with gas prices where they are now.

What about a hybrid Ford Escape?
Not sure what they get 'round town and they are AWD.
