I just found out that my car's gas mileage is too good to qualify for the "cash for clunkers" program. And, apparently, my ten-year old car's gas mileage is better than the new "gas saving" cars, because the clunker-replacement cars must get at least four miles per gallon more than the clunker itself. Now adding clunker mileage + 4 mpg = Oh! still less than my TEN-year-old car.
Oh.

Ok.
Not that my car is a clunker. But it ain't no fancy schmancy shiny new Prius or Insight or nothin'.
Drats.
At least I won't have car payments! Hang in there, ol' car, you're doin' good. You can, apparently, still beat those young whipper snappers.![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_vyE1nGTAor0JL5JbjJN9kzHIQlLAVaHchlcWHWmT_J8quBtZcwsyTSvDWGgSF3-aKiHOK9Am5rInhd6-FMtMGDu6_WHLEz-f1JgzfKX0DYCAtrTwLL3vXx6741_UYB9ZDgxoLvJ6IfzAWBRI_9ekf6=s0-d)
