OK, maybe a little Jetta...
Our daily driver, a '94 Jetta GLS, was decimated in an accident caused by a
careless teen tonight. As a testament to the car, my wife walked away from a
35mph 3/4 head-on collision with a scratched finger caused by the airbag
deploying. The person who caused the accident never even apologized, but was
charged.
Ironically, many of us are discussing Midgets and speed. When I got the phone
call tonight, I found the Midget a tad under-powered. Which leads me to the
subject line: sans Jetta, our only car is our Midget. Grocery shopping this
Sunday should be quite an experience.
Although it might be tempting to find a real, real nice MGB GT to use for
daily use, my wife has made me sworn we're getting another Jetta. Given the
fact that she's in such great shape after that kind of accident, I'm not
about to disagree. Well, living with the Midget like this should be
adventurous. No snow is expected here anytime soon at least!
And please,
Safety fast!
