The tempo was sold to a neighbor who's now using that commute instead of her K5, and the other SUV (the blazer in my signature) is going on ebay tonight.

In my eyes, this should result in a net reduction in my already not-embarrassing ecologic impact, in spite of appearances.

Oh.. and I kinda wish my bicycle had an automatic transmission
