Saying goodbye to Sport

So after 7 great years of driving my Mazda aka "Sport" we had to say goodbye. I bought Sport my senior year of high school brand spankin new. I've driven across country(From Cali to Texas and back...then back again) and anywhere my little heart desired. Sport was a trooper.
Well Scott has been driving Sport for the last 2 years and with his businesses we really started to notice how incredibly high our gasoline bill was...like $800 a month. So we had to say goodbye to Sport.



In his place we bought...

The Toyota Matrix. This car with a $150 payment will still save us at least $150 or more a month. Scott is having fun driving this little car and now I don't have to hear him complain about having to drive a girly truck...with a ballerina sticker (it's really a surfer girl) on the back. Whatever!
