Graf #9 Object


I’m no rich old man, but I do tend to be frugal.  I want the best bang for my buck, and am willing to search out and get the best quality there is to get.  And for the amount of miles that I drive that had to be a Toyota, just had to be.  Fuel efficient, and with a super low level of repeat maintenance, I was sold.  My Toyota Corolla gets me around everywhere.  Now I wish like every other sane “American” to have my gas guzzler v8 tote me and my 7 empty seats around, but that’s just silly by today’s economic standards.  I have a farm 150 miles away that I have to get to year round, and numerous times.  Those two factors ended me up with a 1.8 liter that gets 35 mpg and a set of very nice quality snow tires.  All the while only having to pay nearly a third of what it would cost me to drive any of those big trucks the same distance.

  1. You like the Toyo and have not much sympathy for the SUV--that comes through clearly. What we don't get is what your particular Corolla looks and acts like. This could be an outline for your cause essay!
