Buying a car sux!

The great white whale is gone, long live Moby Dick.
However, there are benefits to having a car... even the whale.
Buying a car is hell... a battlefield filled with mines, everyone trying to get as much money as possible... and pay as little as possible.
Buy used, people whisper in my ear...
You'll save so much money...
However, what about the fact that it has so many miles already on it... wasn't that what happened with the last one?
I fixed it ad infinitum.
Eeeekkkkkkkk
What's a girl to do?
