LOL don't want it to grow we're loving that 14 gallon fill up and 40 to the gallon with him driving round 100 miles a day to and from work.
Just the 2 of us anyway. Hoping to buy a Dodge Caravan in '13.
Mine is getting old. Best thing about Tx. dealerships you have a choice of colors more then grey, white and black. All Ind. gets up there is those dull colors. dull grey interiors also. This red car is beige interior. Yay !

Mileage sounds good. My work requires a 3/4 ton pickup and their mileage is a little short of good.

 My present van is so old (2005) I thought I could replace it next yr. with a new dodge caravan, now, I find out all they make is a Grand Caravan ! wahhhhhhhhhh I've had Caravans for the past 20 yrs. love those vans. what am I gonna do ? LOL I had a Grand one time, didn't like them, to big to control and I backed it up into a sitting semi (couldn't judge the distance) on the pennys parking lot. semi won and I smashed the back windshield all to hell. Tell ya' I caught quite a breeze up in Ind in Dec with no back windshield. He thinks all suv's are gas guzzlers, so, I can't have that probably I'll be walking , I guess. wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

My wife's Expedition gets 19-20. It is a full-size SUV. It drives good and has the room she needs for her business. She is a computer consultant and may have to transport anything from flash sticks to servers.

yeah, that's not real bad. While we were waiting to get our windows tinted on the new one they put us in a Hyandi Santa Fe
it said it got 25 supposedly. I won't be getting that one though !
35 large, think it was. We never have spent over 15 for a Dodge and was thinking we'd have to go 20 this yr. then come to find out they're not being made anymore anyway. LOL Probably going to have to go to 25 too. He likes that ol' copper shade I don't.
Looks like a pumpkin on wheels. I've seen some pretty vanilla creme shades like caramel sauce LOL that is pretty. That truck he bought last yr. body paint is horrible think he's gonna have that repainted. Thing doesn't wash it's always smeary, streaky, etc.
We got whole house water softener and thank God the van and the new car washes up fine it's something in the paint job when it rolled off the line. I called them and complained about it, but, they just said their wash the car man does a section at a time, washes, rinses and uses that chamois thing doesn't let it dry,etc
who in the world is gonna do all that crap! I won't. LOL

The lakes are full farther south in Texas. Looking forward to a summer of boating at the lake again.

I always wondered where all these people I see with boats go with their boats. Lake M. is ugly. Ohio river, up where I used to live was ugly too. LOL Thank God, I've seen the Pacific and the Atlantic.
RV's are a big thing down here too. People have garages built just to accomodate them. Guess they go to Col. ?

The RV's around here go to all points on the compass and for about as many reasons.

I played with a HP desktop the other day my wife had gotten for one of her customers. Everything was in the screen. No computer tower or box. USB ports, CD, etc. were on the perimeter of the screen. Until you took a close look, it appeared to be a normal flat screened monitor. The keyboard and mouse were wireless but the computer screen was also a touchscreen you could bring up a keyboard and go to work. Fascinating unit.
Now if I were a good boy, wonder if Christmas..........
