Car Update

As of Wednesday, the body shop officially stared the process of fixing my car, after waiting 2 weeks for my insurance to get on the ball and get stuff done.

So, obviously, my car is not totalled, which is a good thing. For some, it's not, but for me, I'm not in the position to buy a new/used car. I've had my car only 2 years and I would have broken even (minus the $500 deductible) if insurance had totalled it. So I wouldn't have had any money for a down payment on another car. So, luckily, I get to keep my car! I liked that car anyway.

As of right now, I'm in a rental which I'm going to swap out on Monday. The rental I got is a PT Cruiser. I didn't realize how crappy gas mileage it gets. 17 city/27 hwy. I'm doing a combination of city and highway driving and I just calculated the gas mileage and it's 20 mpg.

Oh well, maybe the rental car place will have fuel efficient car.
