Skip, the Scion

I love my Scion XA. He's fuel efficient. He's cute. And, when the parking lot is full, he fits on the porch.

HOWEVER, Skip, the Scion, is sick today. He has a hole in his vacuum hose which caused a problem with some other system. He also needs new brakes and his tires rotated.

The repair bill made me gack. (Wouldn't have been tragic except we just had a hugely expensive termite treatment bill and John's car had to have the clutch repaired.)

Always seems depressing when unexpected expenses come in waves. Sigh.
