but hey, a happy day for the pathy. the eclipse just dosent excite me anymore..guess cuz im growing out of it. that and its GOT to be one of the most unreliable cars i know of. and before anybody calls "abuse and neglect" iv only seriously beat on that car a couple times and she has been taken care of with meticlous care. and whats sad....i trust my pathy with 245K miles more than i do that car. the pathy has NEVER left me stranded..its taken everything iv thrown at it and laughed in my face. the ONLY thing the dsm has going for it is gas mileage..about 2x better than the path. but its left me borrowing rides of other vehicles too many times.

while the eclipse is a dead sexy looker..i find myself drawn to my slightly beat up old pathy more and more. piss ass slow, dings and dents, less than perfect interior..and it STILL excites me more than my car which is in almost perfect condition.

i have been lookin at gettin a newer nissan or yota (dont shoot me) 4 door midsize truck. but right now its not in the cards with trying to pay all the bills at my new place. i did however just go and take one of each for a spin. iv always liked the 4dr frontys...and this was pretty slick. then i hopped in the yota..and was quite impressed with how different these trucks were. ill say this....the nissan drove (and accelerated) like a tank lol, but everything felt very solid and the interior was a lil better. the yota was alot more quick and nimble..but the interior seemed rather frail, dated, and thin...even tho it was the newer of the 2. so in the future i may have 2 nissys or a nissy and a toy..not quite sure yet.

thoughts? i wont get shit for my dsm from the dealer..so i might sell it to some street racer wannabe in HS. all i gotta do is say "nitrous" and im sure i could get a pretty hefty tag on her.
