I drove a mini-van that used so much gas that it was possibly considered a crime, but I did it because I had two small ones in car seats and there was no way that a small car would work. Now that they are bigger and can get in and out themselves, I have a smaller car that uses less gas again! It's not like you will be driving it forever…but at $50 how could you not take it!

I help out my sister and we would just exchange cars due to my 2-door situation! When I do have to complete the "great seat exchange" it is such a hassle…good thing I don't wear panyhose anymore…cuz I would have run them all! The bending over in the back is not good either!~claps hands~Yeah you!

$50? That's a deal I couldn't pass up either. I drove a 2-door Cavalier and almost killed myself trying to get my kid in the backseat. And forget about it – on a windy day trying to keep the heavy door from smashing into the car next to me was near impossible. I think 2-door cars were made for people with no plans to really use the backseat.

I'll give you $75 for the car 😉 You could probably get me all the way up to $100!

I used to drive a four door Honda Civic. Then I got pregnant. I now drive a SUV and couldn't be any happier about it. Yes, that fab Civic got about 34 mpg and this SUV gets about 21, but dang — so worth the ease in getting the Dude into the car. The Price is Right! 🙂

Thanks for stopping by my blog. You should definitely check out Mad Men. There aren't a lot of choices for good scripted Tv anymore. The writing and acting is superb. You really get involved in these characters lives. I've turned a lot of people onto it. I am a big Tv watcher and have had little faith in the writer's and networks for many years. This show gives me hope. Take care.-Kiki

JEALOUS!!! I want a bigger car because my 40 lb 3 yo has honestly out grown my little Civic that was once a college car. Love that thing but man do we need some space!!!

How could you not jump at that opportunity? We all try to do our part to "save the Earth." Maybe ths is God's way of thanking you for job well done!

I drive a Nissan Xterra and my hubby's company car is a Toyota Highlander hybrid. Based on the mileage he will eventually have to give it back and will get a Camry Hybrid. I wish I had the money to buy it from the company. I don't feel too guilty about my Xterra since it gets great gas mileage and is paid for. Enjoy your new Blazer.-Kiki

I would be giddy about anything that could get me somewhere for $50…I think bicycles are more expensive than that anymore! Stopping by from Mama Kat's.

Funny you mentioned the hybrid. While waiting for my friend at the SF airport she calls me and tells me she is running late. But, she will be driving her new car, a Green Priusand to look out for her. During the wait I counted 30 Green Priuses. lol I love SF.

Visiting from Mama Kats…I'd be giddy with any car that ran and I got it for only $50. I think you're offsetting your carbon footprint (I think that is the term I've heard used!) by all the other things you do. And I agree — a little kid and a two door compact car requires more contortionism than a Cirque du Soleil performance!

Stopping by from Mamma Kat's,I don't remember why, but my dad told me that if you are going to give someone a car to actually sell it to them for a buck or something. My guess is that they won't tax you on it like you would if you bought it from an actual dealer.
