Behold. Sparky II.

He may be basic, but NOT having to drive around with no heat, waiting for my clutch to give out at any second? Well, to say I'm psyched is an understatement. (He looks just like the Sentra in the upper left corner of the cars.com site below.)

(Best thing? 13-year old Sparky was claimed before I'd even finished signing the paperwork for Sparky II. The mechanic at the dealer is taking him home. Yay -- he's got a new home with his very own mechanic!)

Happy trails, Spark.
