The "Impractical" becomes the "Practical"!

Well, as is our "rule", when one of us has our vehicle paid off, then it is time for the other to get their new vehicle! Phil got his yesterday. Phil will park the truck in the garage and will only use it when needed. So what would have been impractical when the kids were still at home, this little two seater now will become the best gas saver (21 mpg city, 28 mpg hwy) for Phil's commute into Phoenix every day. Plus he is reliving his teen-hood. He had a 1967 Sunbeam Alpine that he bought off his brother Greg that he really enjoyed. I'm sure that his new Miata will be taken much better care of though! What a fun little car! We ditched the "Trick -or-Treaters" last night and took a drive up the "hill" to Superior for a soft serve cone. Top was down, and actually it wasn't cold until we started heading back down the hill that Phil turned the heater on. The car wouldn't be my cup of tea as an every day drive but could be fun on weekend drives around town and the state.
