And it's almost new. :)

I got a 2006 Saturn Ion 3 with 5000 miles on it. Some older couple bought it last fall and then traded it in a couple weeks ago to get the next model up. Fine by me. I get a practically new car and save $6,000. :)

I HATE being questioned about the things I do. I know I'm a bit odd and some of my decisions might not make sense outside of my own head.
