Ultimate Driving Machine

I feel like all I do is spend time in my car. Lots and lots of driving. Work and school and home. Now I'm going to drive to Lubbock this weekend too.

All this thinking about driving makes me think about my car. I drive a cute little Civic. It's an awesome car and probably the best purchase I've ever made. HOWEVER. My car isn't as awesome as my friend Phil's car.

Phil let me drive his new BMW well over a year ago when I was visiting him in Houston. Ever since that 20 minute drive, I haven't been content. That BMW drove better than anything I've ever touched. It was truly the ultimate driving machine. I instantly fell in love. After spending 2-3 hours a day in my Civic, I can't help but think about how much better it would be driving that BMW.

So now I'm trying to talk myself into it. It would make since to upgrade to a better car because of all the time I spend it in. I could give up other luxuries to have the car because it's a utility purchase. I mean, I'd use is everyday. But then I remember that my Civic is going to be completely paid off in 3 months and the thought of no car payment is even more appealing than driving the ultimate driving machine.

But you know what? In a million years when my Civic dies (and everyone knows that it takes a million years + a million miles to kill a Civic), I'll buy that BMW I've always wanted.
