Alright, so this just in.

We're thisclose to scrapping the Jetta idea altogether, and thisclose to signing the papers to acquire a Mini-Cooper. I'll deal with the lack of cargo space. High resale value on the Mini and none of the maintenence bullshit we've heard about the other models we've looked at. We're still going to look at the different Scion models just so we've covered all the bases, but for now we've got another recon mission planned to Orlando for this weekend to "seal the deal" if that's what we decide.

EDIT: Damn, he beat me to it

Or just buy a bigger cat carrier so The Beasts can take up only one car seat instead of two, and then fold down the other seat and use that for cargo space

If you buy Scion, I will track you down and kill you.

Scions are leet. But I think you guys should consider an old Ford Pinto. For the same amount that it would cost you to buy 1 new car. You can get several dozen (I'm dead serious) Pintos. That way, when one explodes, you can just use the next one and so on and so forth.

It's a Scion.

By buying one, you succumb to evil CEOs who insist on making "EXTREME" and "hip" cars for the generation-Y youth that "doesn't want the car their parents drive."

If you want one, get a Toyota. Or a Saturn.
