like I said I would spend on seats, I just paid for some 03 Cobra seats this morning. I am freakin happy. Black leather with Grey inserts.
And I was dead on about saving. Landed on the operating table and will be out of work for at least a month. Saving and income tax returned is more then enough to keep us a float (not to mention wife moving up to Staff Sgt. will keep us ahead of the game).

I've had my hours cut, and I just bought a house, so I basically have no money for the car. Right before this crap hit we were upgrading 40/month. I would have been a captain 8 months ago if this economy thing hadn't been an issue. Which means, I would have been spending boat loads on the car.
