My car died...

Thursday on my way home my engine blew up in my fifteen year old Pontiac Grand Am. It's been a good car for the ten years that I've owned it. Unfortunately, it blew a piston and/or bent a rod Thursday afternoon, on the way home from work. The engine and exhaust started blowing smoke, and I mean a lot of smoke. The faithful old car made it home, before dumping most of it's remaining oil on the driveway.

We spent the better part of Friday looking for a replacement, and had a turn of luck. We found a 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan at a great price. It looks and drives great. It has just about all the options too.
