That's a pretty good idea

Just drive the damn thing to work once a week and all these problems will be moot.

Drive the honda the other days.

hell, I'm dropping about $120 a week in gas. That's up from $85 or so last year. I've a rule about toys- I won't collect them like my buddies do. Hopefully the jetskiis will be gone this coming week, and I'm buying a Triumph Sprint GT moto.. There is hardly any chrome on the thing, unlike my last bike- so I won't hesitate to ride it in the rain.. The last one sucked- ten seconds in the rain meant 6 hours of polishing..

this one gets 55mpg as opposed to 24 of the last one too..

It will more than pay for itself..

how dang sad is this that it's even a consideration? Dang man.. just dang..

yea, i regret parking my dodge for long periods of time after i bought a jeep, it was really really hard on it...i ended up in a rebuild for me...but i prabably dident have to. The sitting took a a fits on the truck, witch led to a few failing parts which is why i decided to do a rebuild on the motor and suspension.
