On my drive to work today, my exhaust broke. Again. (In a new place, though. Jason's welds were wonderful for the old break.) I drove through DC dragging my muffler behind and parked at work. I shimmied under the car and lashed the sections of tailpipe together with bailing wire, which held up for the drive back to Baltimore tonight

It doesn't have Prius mileage, but if you want something Rav-4 sized, Cathy's been quite happy with her Subaru Forester.

My car wasn't/isn't cheap but I can fit a huge Ikea desktop in it or a put-together charcoal grill. And my gas milage isn't bad. But I have to buy expensive gas. That sucks.

the subies get so-so mileage. rents pull like 26 light highway cruising.

some of the vws are decent, but vw's either run really well and give you no problems or constantly malfunction. its prety bipolar.

I didn't know Lily was the final member of the five! Does that mean she'll lead us to earth?

If so, I recommend her doing it in a Toyota Matrix. Those fuckers hold as much as a RAV-4 sized SUV, but get better gas mileage.

It's not stylish, but I'm going to recommend the Accord Station Wagon.

Remember that thing I drove in High School? Reliable, good gas mileage, LOTS of room.
