Since I don't want Bobert to be in pain and unable to do the thing he loves the most, he cannot be unable to play, and therefore he is not leaving the band. So say I.

Are you going to be commuting over Monument Hill? If so, 4WD is worthwhile.
Yes, although I'm not sure there are any good mileage cars with 4WD. But we will keep our Homda Pilot (my favorite car ever) as our 2nd car and I can drive that on predicted snowy days.
the ONLY TAL I have ever listened to (I know, I'm a philistine) was in the car the other day, and it was the producers (writers?) doing a show about "Shows Our Parents Thought Would Make Good Shows And We Laughed At Them", and they kept talking about how all their friends and parents would always be like "This would make a good episode!" and really it wouldn't
That's right up there in awesomeness with my first Buffy episode being "Dopplegangland" and Jessica's being "Superstar." Meta mirrorverse for the win!
My first Buffy was Restless!
Low-30s seems pretty good highway MPG for a 4WD SUV to me. I commuted 30 miles from the Springs to Elbert County for seven years in an '84 Toyota Tercel wagon, and I got about 32 MPG in 2WD, and 28 MGP when I had to switch into 4WD.
I'm still earwormed with the "TION" song from the Electric Company.
Are you going to be commuting over Monument Hill?
How big is this "hill?" B/c as much as I love my Darla (Civic Hybrid), she does not enjoy when I take her to Asheville. That one big incline on the way there? I get passed by everyone but 18 wheelers. 3 cylinders, yo.
Well, downtown Colorado Springs is at about 6000', and Monument Hill (about 18 miles north) tops out at about 7400' where I-25 crosses the Palmer Divide on the way to Denver. It's not an extreme slope, it's just that it's high enough and oriented just right (or wrong, depending on your point of view) to trigger and catch rain, ice, and snow.
Yeah, I get about 17mpg in my AWD van. So any improvement is a good thing. And I really really need at least AWD given our dirt roads.
Yeah, the Palmer Divide is very much a border. Storms often stop or start there. We used to live just south of there butnow we are way more south.
