For those that remember when I made the radio the hard way by getting my Plymouth Neon smashed up on State Street in Milwaukee, I've finally acquired the replacement car. I bought a 2006 Hyundai Sonata GLS.
A friend of mine commented, "Good move, buying a car from a people with a work ethic."
The car is a substantial upgrade for me, considering that I've always looked at owning a vehicle as little more than mass transit for one. My last two cars, the Neon and a 1995 Geo Metro, were both economy vehicles in every sense of the word.
