Do you know the way to Santa Fe?



We went car shopping today. Well, not really shopping, because buying a car when only one of you is working and the other is in grad school isn't exactly tops on a financial planner's to-do list. But with the cost of gas outpacing the cost of tuition, it's pretty compelling to look for new wheels. Besides which, our two cars are a combined 15 years old with a cumulative 341,000 miles. That's 13 1/2 times around the Earth. These were the two test drives we're still talking about. Guess which one is whose favorite?
