Yup. Thought it was about time to tell you guys...

Well, where do I start? I've been going through some hard...'restructuring' in my life these past couple of weeks. Lots of 'WTF am I doing?' and 'WTF am I going to do?' has been happening. Unfortunately, the Neon got the short end of the stick. I still absolutely love the car, but for now, I just need something different. And sadly, I can't keep the car in the backyard while I wait for that day. Ha! sounds like something someone told me last week.

Anyways, the car is up for sale. I would put it in our 'For Sale' section but seeing as how I am the only VT user on here, I decided not to bother. I'm still going to hang around here since 2gn is like another family to me. :-) Maybe not as often, but I'll still be checking out what everyone is doing and put in my 2 cents every once in awhile.

I currently have a few people looking at it and we'll see how it goes from there.

Well, that's it for now.

You better keep hanging around though :cussing:

Hahaha! I will, John! I promise. I actually had to use her to get to work today, which actually made me quite sad. :-(

Right now my options for cars are:

-2000 BMW 323i
-2000 BMW 323ci
-2002 Audi A6 Quattro wagon

Yeah, I know they're all expensive. But I figured if I'm gonna do it, I might as well go big.

EDIT: Don't worry, Danny. I won't forget about my 2gn Family! :rockon:

NOOOOO. How dare you!

I know sometime things have to change, Jeff. Good luck with the sale.

You should've accepted those guns so that you would be one step closer to world domination!!

Well, that was fast. Got home from work tonight, parked the car out on the road, and just put the sign on it again when a guy in a Dodge Ram Hemi pulls up. He looked it over, talked about how great I made it look :-), went to go get his son, took it out for a short drive, came back and wanted it. He put a down payment on it and is gonna pick it up tomorrow with the rest of the cash.

I'm a little sad. :-( In a creepy, Neon owner way I could tell she was upset I was selling her. :-( She played nice though. She actually purr'd when I started her up for the guy and he mentioned she sounded great. :D

...It's for the better I guess. The kid is a student at WyoTech and was really excited about it. Hopefully he will treat her just as well, if not better than I did. :-(

Thanks everyone for supporting me on my sale. I was really expecting everyone to call me an idiot. I'm happy with the sale and hopefully it'll open up a new chapter in my life.

And as I said: I'm not planning on leaving 2gn. I'll still stick around just like many other people have done, including Danny. And I especially want to see if the kid gets on here. I put a bunch of 2gn business cards in the car and told his dad about the site. :twisted:

Well bro, what realy matters is that you are happy.

And because you sold your neon, does not mean you will not get another one in the future. :twisted:

Thanks, Juan! :-P

Let's just say...I've had a recent 'uprooting' that kind of caught me off guard. :banghead: My college is a crappy community college in a couple towns over so I really don't know anyone there. Nor do I know enough people to have 'groupies'. :rofl: If anything, I mostly keep to myself here.

I'm gonna call both of the BMW owners today to see if I can go look at the cars. The reason there is an Audi in my list is because my dad owns it. It's an Audi A6 Avant 3.0L with basically everything you could want. It's an option because even with him selling it to me ABOVE the Blue Book value it would still be more affordable than both of those Beemers. :tardbang:

I have my heart mostly set on the Beemers so we'll see. The Neon gets picked up today so I'll snap some shots. :-(

So she got picked up a couple days ago. I've just been too lazy to put up the photos. Not like there were that many anyways. :tardbang:

It was kind of sad to see her drive away. I've never seen my car drive away without me in it so it was the first time I actually got to see that. She looked very, very pretty. The Audi in the driveway is one of my choices for my next car, BTW. I love that thing.

Yeah, watching your car being driven by someone else makes you really admire your ride a whole lot more! I know how that feels.
