The summer is almost over and it's time to think about going back to school. (And getting jobs.) And the person who needs to get to school is Adam, since he's going to college. (And getting a job.) He'll need a car. To get to school. (And work.)
So we got on craigslist to see what we could find in the local area. Took a couple weeks, but we located a nice little Pontiac Grand Am SE for only nine hundred dollars. Which is quite affordable for a young college student. (Assuming he gets a job to pay for it.)
It's got 200k miles on it. Not too bad. One of the CV axles has a cracked boot. But the guy who sold us the car threw in a CV axle (with boots) from another wreck. The rear bumper is cracked with one light missing. But the guy who sold us the car threw in a bumper (blue) from another wreck. There front right fender is dented and there's a bit of rust here and there (and the guy who sold us the car didn't throw in anything for those items).
Yeah. It ain't a Masarati. Motorista wouldn't put it on her top 10 (or within a mile of it). But it runs. It'll get you from point A to point B. It'll get son #1 from home to college (and to work) and back again.
I wonder what son #2 thinks? (He's driving the red Subaru...)
