    as some of you might remember....I got in an accident in my Girlfriend's Escort a couple months ago, and after some fighting with the insurance company, they totaled it, and we got some decent cash for it ($3200 after 500 deduct and 600 buy-back), and started looking for a replacement. We really wanted a BG Outback, but they were a bit hard to come by. looked at alot with bad head gaskets, and high miles.

    then we stumbled across this. 123k miles, some cosmetic damage (paint scuffed of the bumpers mostly), lots of maintenence records (most from mtka morries), new tires etc. asking 3500 obo on craigslist. almost didn't bother looking for that price, but it wasn't far away so we did. and it turned out be in awesome condition. so I offered him 3k, and he took it!

    so here it is:

    and the worst of the damage. he backed into somebody, and popped the bumper cover loose from the fender.....no biggy:

    nope. we park however we want here in Duluth.


    yea, it was an awesome find. I guess while I was working tonight, she found a snowy parking lot and tested it out a bit. and then she was talking about trying to get March 1st off.......took me a minute to figure out why.

    I've created a monster!
