300K Will Not Happen

The state of affairs is abysmal.  The radiator leak has only grown, and I've resigned to adding about 12oz of coolant each time I drive.  Long drives are out.  Each drive could be the last. 

On top of this, my wife's car has been glitching over the past week.  First, an exhaust hanger broke causing her muffler to fall off.  She drove my car for a few days (with extra coolant in hand) while I biked to work.  Once that was mended her A/C gave out.

We started researching new cars a few weeks ago.  Last night we test drove a 2011 Prius with 6,000 miles.  Tomorrow we test a new Honda Fit.  Maybe by the weekend we'll have new wheels and I can officially kick this bucket to the curb. 

A short update, but an important one.  It looks like the ticker won't push much past 295,000.  I'm not sad.
