Woo Hoo I'm getting a new(er) car!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just talked to my friend and I'm about 99% certain that her dad is going to sell me his car! It's a 1996 Intrepid with 80,000 miles for $2,000 dollars! Yay I'm so excited to be getting a reliable automobile!

Heres a picture of an intrepid, the same year and color, but not the car that I'm buying

3. Yeah I think everything is going to work out
I called the guy that my friend told me to and it looks like he's going to put several of us (who are all in the same boat) in the apartment together temporarily. Which should be fun because we are all good friends. However they are only going to issue one key (to the person who's apartment it is) and the rest of us are out of luck with that. So I guess we are just going to have to work out a system...or get a key illegally made

7. Exactly
I am probably going to be out of the apartment 12 hours a day. I have to supervise triple practice sessions that run from early morning till dark. As long as I have a place to sleep and shower I won't have a problem

And where I live...anytime someone says they're getting a new car we usually reply: "Great! What year is it?"
BTW I rented and drove an Intrepid to Atlantic City last month (500mi)...I LOVED it.

4. Yes I don't expect to own a new car any time soon...
just a lowly college student. But from what I've heard people have only told me good things about the Intrepid.

Thats a sweet car in the pic, what kind is it?

6. The thing 'bout the Intrepid was that it was sooo comfortable
It just eats up the miles without fatigue.

That's my summer car ...'71 Triumph TR6. They were made in England until 1982. sorta the same family as the MG.

8. Anything is better than the clunker I'm driving now
I currently own an 88 Cadillac Eldorado. That sucker has a V8 and sucks up gas like nobody's business. I don't drive it much, except back and forth to work, I don't take it down to school. Just because it has crappy mileage and It's on its last leg. I think anything other than a Hummer would be an improvement.

btw
Thats such a kickass car, I've never seen one before, it kind of reminds me of an old school Mustang
