We purchased a 5-speed Subaru Forester today. It is the *youngest* vehicle we have ever owned - coming in at 10 years old.
It is due for a timing belt change, but once Daniel does that, we should be good to go for another 100,000+ miles. Well that is not completely true... it is used and will have general wear and tear on the engine but our in-house mechanic (Daniel) does a pretty good job of keeping our old vehicles in good working order.
I talked to my brother today and this is the gist of our conversation.

Mark: How was your new year's?
Me: Good. We bought a car today.
Mark: Awesome. What kind? How much did you spend?
Me: A Subaru Forester for $XXXX.
Mark: Wait... you won't spend $4 to buy more Christmas lights for your Christmas tree, but you will spend $XXXX on a car?
Me: Yep.
Mark: You guys are going to be millionaires some day.
