Hardy har, sail. Good one.

Yeah, the Mini's have 8 airbags to compensate for the size. We may be airbag burn, but we'll be in a giant bubble of safety. We'll just pray it won't be a multi collision accident, getting nailed after the airbags deflate.

We both grew up with no real brand loyalty, I think we've owned almost every brand growing up. As adults, we became a Subaru family, and considering they both have over 200,000 miles, I can't complain about Japanese engineering. They've been great cars.

I went on the "Buy American" craze in '86, but a Chevy Spectrum. When I went to buy parts for the car, they were all Isuzu. So much for "Buying American" It doesn't mean anything. We have a old Dodge Van for hauling stuff. We tend to drive cars until they're dead or looking at the grave. This will be our first non-reactionary purchase, which makes it much more enjoyable.

Well, for anyone reading this thread, they've lost interest!
Guess we got haha

It's been really fun talking with you, and we'll have to stay in touch. For now, its' time to get financing, insurance, and trips planned!
