Me, I'd personally go for the Toyota, but I'm small and fit easily in most overhead compartments :) It took some work to convince my husband that we should have an emergency fund, but he loves it now, too.

I just saw your latest post ("10 Ways to Reduce Spending Painlessly") and I have to add a thumbs up on the dropping the gym membership. I've wasted so much money on the one membership I did have, and it was nothing but a constant source of guild for me. Did you see my article <a href="http://www.electric-monk.net/lise/2008/04/03/five-reasons-to-skip-the-gym-membership/" rel="nofollow">"Five Reasons to Skip the Gym Membership?"</a> Why, hello, there, new reader!

Isn't having an emergency fund great? I'm totally loving the security. We're still debating what to do about our car. Yikes! Hard decisions all around. Glad that yours worked out!

Yay for your car! I have AWD. Must be careful. I hope the regular maintenance includes a check for that... (I get regular maintenance every 5k miles at the dealership. Most of the time it's just an oil change, but they do what the manufacturer recommends, and for the extra money over the guy down the road, I get provable maintenance for any relevant purposes.)

I look forward to getting to a place where these little hiccups don't impact our emergency savings too. I’m glad your transmission issues were not enough to throw you off track.
