Talk Me Down Off the Ledge

New theory:

It is far less stressful to buy "a car" versus "The Next Car". Just get a cheap ride... maybe for the summer and then flip it at a small loss. No one really cares if I have a "hall of fame" car, right?

Right... and so this car (click here) is highly, highly appealing. Crazy, but appealing. I can't tell you how much fun this would be for a few months. Talk about a pimp-mobile.... my my.

ps. Note that I don't think that I could speed with impunity, pull people over, or anything like that...

It would just be a great conversation piece and have oodles of potential with dates.

Scenario: meet someone on a blind-date at a coffeeshop. Things go well, so offer to drive to the zoo. While walking, ask mischieviously, "hey want to steal a police car?"... and then ultimately make a bet that yes it is my ride.... Priceless stuff.

Unfortunately (fortunately?), the fever has passed... I don't think it would be a good daily driver but the real kicker is that it would be hard to unload once the novelty wore off.

If I was younger though..... man, it even has the ram thing on the front!
