My car's officially retired for the year

Well, it really has been for a few weeks I guess, I've only driven it twice in the last 2 months anyway. But yeah, I won't be driving it before I leave either, so woohoo.

I'm not going to officially retire it since I'll be driving it when I get back, but unofficially,

Hopefully I pick up a metro to run for testing/dieseling, but who knows.

Need to take the wiper off the back window. You'll be a little rusty when you get back and every little bit will help.

Eh, not now. The whole reason I'm not driving is fighting with my parents about the POS.

You'd be top 10 for the least fuel used lately, Ben.

zpiloto - what are you driving now? Or have you just retired it since the FE numbers have gone off the cliff with the other drivers?

I'm still driving it but very little my son started to drive now and It's kinda of a share deal. He'll be driving it more than me. We have order a Prius and if it comes before the tax credit expires at the end of September I could be sharing that. They tell us it a 4 month wait. So we'll see what happens.
