Holy crap. Things are moving fast for you!

Congrats!

Yeah when it rains it pours. I try not to get too excited, because fortunes can turn in an instant.

But for the moment, the sun is shining.

Moving up and on!!! Hell yeah that's a fantastic gift - and no need to deal with futzing around with sellers and car yards

Exactly! I'll be happy if I can get 3 or 4 years out of it.

You’d be surprised how long a well car will last as long as it’s not a lemon.

I’m sure you could push it out to 10 years or more if it’s got a good reputation.
