But i do understand how ya feel im averaging 80+ hours a week at work right now and working 7 days a week. and if i am lucky i get a bout a 1/2 day off on Sat or Sun.

Sorry to hear about your MC Space, but sometimes we have to do things we don't want to do. Hopefully your MC has a good new home. Hope to see you in another MC before long. Who knows, maybe if you hold out long enough you will get a Gen VII (it doesn't hurt to dream!)

Oh Space.. Even if you dont have a MC, it wouldnt be the same here without you. Its kind of like loosing a member of the family, but priorities are there man, and ya gotta do whats right.

I mean, its not over dude. Schools expensive man. 18k is probably gonna net you a few more years tuition. Look at the bright side, its that much less you gotta pay back!

And hey, you could always pick up a nice 98 lt for 5 or 6 grand anyway, or even go ahead and fix up a nice old 86. Its not the end of the world. Heck, remember that Ive been looking at trading mine in for a mini-van. Get a nice 5.0L HO or maybe a 350... Call it the space rocket.


Life happens man,
Your still one of us. Always will be.

(Besides a houseboat is kickin)

I'm sooo sorry you had to give up your Monte. I know you did what you had to do. If I was in that situation I would give up my Mini Cooper, I would hate to drive my Monte in the salt and snow, but if I had to choose it would be the Monte and try to protect is as much as I could from the elements.

as a high school student about to hit college, i understand your predicament, and i honestly think you made the right decision. less interest on college loans... and like everybody said, you can always pick up an older monte that you can bang around a bit more. it wuoldn't be the same without you anymore space... so we're all happy to have you stay with us.
