Friday we traded off the Montana minivan for something a little sportier that will still hold all the family. Went for a 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix, it was a rental car with 7,000 miles on it, but it really nice shape. And it sure is a lot faster than my ole 4 banger, . The stang still gets drove on a daily basis, but will be letting the wife drive the stang some and I'll drive the grand prix some.

Thought I would share:

Not a fan of the GM's generally, but I rented a new Grand Prix for a couple of weeks last year and I really gotta admit, they're nice cars. Much better than any of the current same class offerings from Ford IMO.

Yep, 3.8 V6 Grand Prix.

Finally got a good wax on it today. I had to clay bar the whole thing, wipe it back down, then wax it. Then I found little white paint spots like from fresh highway paint on it. Got each of them off and then rewaxed again. Its one slick paint now!!
