devildogmech: I'm with you. I have a 1996 SC2 that has a warped valve cover, a sun roof that doesn't work, and a belt that likes to squeak when it gets wet. It would cost more to fix it than what it's worth. My wife wanted to sell it, but now with the price of gas, she's having second thoughts. And, no, going car-free isn't really an option down here since we are just a month away from the start of hurricane season. However, I am thinking of going car-light so we can save our cars for when the $#!] hits the fan and we need to vacate. Even Lance can't pedal THAT fast. Hopefully, the 2008 season will be fairly benign around here. I'm afraid that another major hurricane hitting us would cause more people to leave and not come back.
