fantastic!

i will tell you what it is a good feeling to have a set of wheels. a very good feeling indeed.



congrats.

look like there is some utility there, a lot of cars lack usefulness other than moving warm bodies around, this one can do that and haul a bit of stuff to boot.

Congratz, Steve, an.. ahem individual choice! In europe the car is known as Mitsubishi Space Wagon, a cool name. Much better than the Focus - we had the 2nd gen Focus station wagon for a short time in my company. First thought: "What a %§&%%&§& car!" I told this to the production assistant, he asked "why,it's a nice ride!" "Well, because you are also a %§&%%&§&." (didn't really like him either)
Wasn't really made for our demands, especially longer rides with 4 people were a torture.

Btw, I have a buddy who makes (car) stickers for a few bucks- so if you want to style your car a little more, drop me a message :

maybe you can remove them and put them in the passenger feet area, behind the driver seat in an extreme case.
Yeah. My old Escort back seat actually folded down into the floor, leaving a flat space. Of course that meant the rear deck was higher, meaning less space overall. On the other hand newer minivans have rear seats that pop out with a single lever. I would have to use a wrench to get this one out. Maybe it will happen, maybe not. We'll see.

enjoy your new found mobility!!!
Today I made my first real grocery run. No more walking to the store and only buying what fits in the backpack. Oh, right. The new backpack hasn't arrived yet and I don't need it any more!

That seemed to be true of my Escort. On the other hand it was only two years old when I bought it and eleven when I killed it.
