This was a kind of rush situation. My co-worker has a friend who lives in Chicago with me in Indianapolis. He said on Wednesday if you don't want it, I'm going to trade it in on Monday. So I bought a one-way ticket and drove it home.

I figured that it was worth the chance I was taking for $15,000; I could probably break even if I didn't care for it.

So far, it seems to be the right choice. Even if I were to break even, it would have a better return than the stock market over the past year.
