Buying an enormous, gas guzzling, SUV that gets 11 mpg was the best investment I've ever made--in my family!
I drove a Honda Accord for 4 years with two car seats in the back. It wasn't until the third car seat came about that we physically couldn't do the accord anymore. Three seats DO NOT fit in the back seat and one can't go in the front. Now that the law says up to 6 years/60 lbs., we'll get plenty of use of of our V8!
Now that I have three under three, I rarely drive (600 miles per month) and fill up about every three weeks. I think it's now what you drive but how you drive and what you drive for.
And "What Would Jesus Drive"? An old full size pickup truck with a long bed. A roof rack and extended cab (to transport his disciples) and smog spewing out the tailpipe. Just a thought.

A nice little hook shop can be as expensive as a brick and mortor antique shop. Too bad you can't really sell that line on eBay. Just tapes and videos.
Maybe as a package vacation?

It was profitable a first but since I've been doing it for several thousand years, I've lost customers to the 'younger crowd'.
The sag factor really affected my bottom line.
Such is life.
