Yesterday was our coupe’s last day in the sun.


We’ve had it for 6118 days, which is 3 months short of 17 years.
It has done very well for us over that time.
It still gets about 32MPG highway and 27 city. And, it still has a lot of get up and go in it.
Not bad after all those years.
But, a couple of hours from now we’re trading it in.

Of course, the head lights have problems, the windshield wipers have stopped working, the driver’s side seat has been broken for a decade and, like something out of Logan’s Run, on its last day the “service engine soon” light has been flashing on and off.

But, I’ll still miss it.

Giving up a good car is hard, even when it's time. End of an era and all...

Yeah, that little red pulsing light on the palm is never a good sign...

Alas, poor Coupe! You knew him well, and he has served valiantly. I swear that they know when the end is near. I am sure that your new toyota will make you happy and comfortable (and be even easier on your gas card)!
