wtf
When my wife was pregnant with our first child, she was driving home in her Honda Accord in the snow. She got stuck on the road. It was a small hill but no one could move on it. The snow was too much and very slippery. She almost froze if not for two ladies that lived nearby who let her into their home.
That year we bought a 35k SUV. Nuff said.
Now she still drives the Honda to work and I keep the SUV in our driveway. lol
Anyway, with 2 kid now, we use the SUV to jerk them around from place to place. No way I'm bending down to place them in car seat in a C-A-R. lol Can you even BUY an SUV these days for under $30,000? I doubt it.
That's my story.
