Sold!

As they say, all good things must come to an end. Last Friday, Amy got the feeling that it might just be the end for Dana, the self-healing car. Dana has served us well over the years, putting up with four cross country trips, a flooding (under mysterious circumstances), 3 CV boot replacements, and one leaky oil pan. But since Dana has started to "massage" her passengers on short trips (and serenade them with a rusted heat shield), we didn't think her too family friendly anymore.

So off to the car dealerships we went, and though we weren't planning on buying anything this weekend (especially in the middle of a preternaturally strong thunderstorm), the Ford dealership made us a deal we couldn't pass up. And so, just in time for the Future Wolverine's arrival, we welcome the addition of Lupin, the cool grey Fusion.

As for Dana, she'll be traded in later this week. Here's hoping another broke grad student looking for a somewhat reliable cheap ride finds her just as satisfying as we did. Good Luck Dana- we will remember you fondly!
