Conor's New Bed

We bought Conor a new bed this weekend... or at least that's what he thought it was last night... he had gotten really quiet when we went looking for him... here's where we found him (the pics aren't that great, but you get the idea):




Okay, maybe its not really his new bed... it's our new car! We have been researching vehicles for a few months now, and it has been a rather trying process at times. Tom may only be 6'2", but he has short legs and a long torso - a torso that measures the same as the average 6'5" - 6'8" person. Cars that he can sit comfortably in and that don't get the gas mileage equivalent of an M1 A1 Abrams Tank are few and far between, but we finally found one. And, we new it was the right one because the car we are trading in on it has a full tank of gas (every time we trade a car for a new one or when it finally becomes undriveable it has a full tank of gas).

It's a 2006 Mitsubishi Endeavor AWD with about 15K miles. It has plenty of room, lots of gadgets and gizmos (the only thing that I really wanted that it doesn't have is memory seats, but since its big enough for Tom, there won't be much adjusting anyway!), and very comfortable - even the back, as is evidenced by Conor above.
