Default Made the tough choice tonight...

Tonight sucked, I had to give in to gas mileage and practicality. I need a new daily driver, my stang just isnt practical anymore. In my current situation I just cant afford to drive two vehicles either. I am being forced to take the stang off the road for a while. Bought a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport and I cant afford insurance on both let alone gas just for the stang. So the stang will be sittin under a cover for a while parked in my garage. Hopefully withen the next year or two it will be back out as a ***** to the wall street car but who knows what will come. I plan on pulling the motor out in a month or so and start to tear it down. And rebuild her as a 347 aluminum head'd worked up little small block, who knows how long that will take. Just wanted to share my night a little bit, instead of sittin here all depressed

leave the stang on your insurance, covered with Comprehensive Insurance ONLY

you get a multi car discount, save a couple hundred bucks, and your insurance cost will go down

*edit* i hope that jeep isn't a 4.0... they aren't very fuel efficient. they only get about 17 mpg. My little S10 does better, and has a bigger engine!
