So the other night I had this dream I had taken my car, the lovely Protege, in for some much needed work, seriously who needs brakes, and at the same time there was this other guy dropping off his older car. A couple of days later Amanda and I went to pick up my little blue buddy and while the guy was ringing us up he kept talking about new mag wheels, paint job, brembo brakes, headers and more and Amanda and I just looked at each other and I was thinking to myself, wait what is going on here, is this pimp my ride, but X to the Z zibt was no where in sight. Amanda and I just let him keep going. Eventually the guys said I will be right back with your car. In the next couple of seconds we heard this tremendous roar and out front came this wicked black '70's Charger
They guys came in handed me the keys and then I got all excited. Stupidly I felt I had to ask what happened to the little blue car that was brought in that same day. The looked back at me with a puzzled look and asked, what do you care about that piece of junk? I looked at back at him with a blank look and told him that that was my piece of junk. He looked a little shocked and said he was sorry and took away the keys to this black beauty and then brought around my little blue buddy.
Even in my dreams I dream of you little buddy! One day you will be able to frolic on the never ending speedway, but for now it is just you and me and our commute listening to
Morning Edition and
All Things Considered. Just the two of us in our quest for decent gas mileage and a better understanding of your shaking at stop lights. Here's to the commute! -Jared

Funniest blog imaginable. Seriously.
Nice. Long live loyalty to the commuting work hogs and big dreams!
The only thing that could beat having ole blue, would be having lil red back (my mighty mighty Escort), but you know the 70's Charger with a blown motor and wicked Mag wheels would just hit the spot on the commute. I can picture it now ~~~~~(dream sequence) "Oh yeah Saturn Ion, what do you think about cutting me off now!!!! Take that!!(imagine great whooshing noises accompanied by the great roaring 426 Hemi motor)
