Off topic - my car

Julian W, asked: What kind of cars we drive, how many homeopaths drive
'luxury' cars?
I still have my 1965 Chevy Impala, yes still drive it occasionally - when
I got it it was in 3 colors, blue, rust and primer with torn upholstry -
but I did create a big stir in politics (how dared I?) it was my old
Chevy, two Mercedes and 2 Caddies I shared committee seats with. At
least now it is only blue, and looks a bit more respectable now that it
is an actual antique.

Last year my daughters decided I didn't present a
respectable, professional image in an old klunker. My concern this car
could not navagate on the super highways around me, so we didn't travel
anywhere very far. The lure of homeopathic seminars and people I wanted
to study with tipped the balance towards a new car.

I got dragged to some dealerships, did some comparitive pricing, looked
for a car that held its value and traumatized myself (meaning I now have
car payments) by buying a Toyata Camry. (It is a great car, takes me
where I want to go in comfort, handles the highways well, etc)

But, a Mercedes might be nice, or a Nisan Magma as a second thought - now
if some kind person out there wants to make the payments for me, I would
definitely consider buying one.

Warmly, Maria
