Ok, I did it

I agree... I bought a Golf because I wanted a Golf. It's going to be a
commuter car and I do live in real cold weather, dirt road, doens't get
cleared of snow until after I've used it in the mornings. A Jetta would
have been nice too, but I couldn't see spending the extra money on it just
because it's a Jetta. There was no functional reason for me to get the
Jetta at all.

BTW delivery is scheduled for tomorrow. The neon finally gets some rest...
she doens't owe me anything but I wouldn't want to be the person that gets
her after.
