Goodnight Sweet Prince

So the Cavvy is gone. Sold. It is just a sweet memory now. There will be no more toting the canoe across Washington into Boise, no more 3 hour drives down to Portland, no more running down hobos in the streets, the engine revving as I leave a trail of blood and tears in my wake.

No, the car will now provide that kind of happiness to some other lucky young man. I on the other hand, will be spending about $400 less per month for a car I never used (except for those uses listed above).

And so, we bid thee a fond farewell... may your air filter always be clean... may your tires remain inflated and grippy, and may you never miss when a homeless family of three crosses your path (the arrogant jerks that they are).

...adieu

That brings a tear to my eye. I assume that $400 a month will now be going into the stock market where, with some prudent investing, you will in just a few short years be independently wealthy and retire. Either that or it will support a highly addictive Star Wars action figure habit.

Wow son! I didn't think that little scooter could haul your canoe...imagine that!

That isn't the pic you used to sell the car is it? You could get sued for false advertising, making the buyer think the car comes with a canoe. Or the other way around.

So Devon since you say "No more 3 hour trips to Portland" that means you are abandoning your elderly parents huh?

Scott - No, it's my beanie baby collection thats going to see me through into retirement.

Dad - ya, i'll just strap the skate board under the canoe and drag it around that way. And yes... it DOES mean I am abandoing my elderly parents. Let us never speak of them again.

Chris - I made sure they knew it was the cavalier without the "canoe upgrade." I just thought that made it look tough and rugged... which it is not.

I love that you buy a canoe and THEN sell your car.
