« Last word on Bourdain | Main | Why 'cash for clunkers' makes sense »

Bidding your minivan, SUV adieu?

Did you do a cash-for-clunker deal? Are you bidding adieu to a minivan -- the one you transported your kids around in for god-almighty-a-gazillion miles and a zillion soccer games? Are you finally giving up the SUV for something called a car, that thing with . . . with . . . a trunk!?

Are you feeling sentimental about the minivan -- any attachment to it at all? Or was it time for that phase of your life to end anyway? Is cash-for-clunkers providing you with a long-delayed mid-life crisis ride?

Have you finally decided that you can do without the SUV? Moving to something smaller, maybe even . .  compact?

Send your sentiments here and we'll post them, and we're all comiserate.
