Being without a car stinks!

Well, my car has finally died. I can't really complain because it does have almost 270,000 miles, but I really wanted it to last a little longer. Now I get to start hunting for a car that's not too much. I'm waiting to hear back from Larry to see what he is going to do with two of his cars. At one point, he said he would give one to me if I would fly out to get it. Of course, I'm willing to do that, but I don't know if he's changed his mind or not. I really don't want to have car payments, but may not have a choice.
