Good point, but a Burb IMO is too gas-guzzling to EVER drive to the office or grocery store, even as a secondary vehicle.

If the junkyards paid me enough to cover my costs and then some, I'd do it.

Oh, it has to take me to the store for a Coke and Big Mac run every now and then too. Now, here is the important thing, it cannot cost more than what my Ex would cost in maintenance, insurance and space.

You don't have to do any of those things in your Excursion. That's your choice and the kind of wasteful fuel expenditure that I'm talking about.
