So I got a new job, new computer, I need a new car.

This thing is going to get me to work and back for the shortest amount of time possible until I can afford a new car.

So uh... this is the end... goodbye maechunbu KIA
Just need a change in my life. honestly.

I want a manual hybrid. Just need some more $$$. Soon very soon...

Well you did a great run with this one! A new life is always good fun, and more money in your pocket will definitely help. Manual hybrids are very short right now, as far as I can tell. Hopefully you will find a good one in your area!

I liked The Defiant from "Deep Space Nine," although The Tardis also has its merits.

I liked Voyager better (Intrepid-class). Sort of a mini-flagship, very versatile.
