Yeah....congragulations on both. 
Despite the added drag and weight, you will not be sorry you got an AWD one....especially in New York State.
How is that broken leg coming along?

Im pretty much all healed up, gonna be off of PT profile tomorrow, light PT allowed.
as for the car, its not as slow as one would think, its decently peppy, but i wanted her to drive something besides gher 10 year old saturn while im gone in iraq. this was perfect, i was gonna put her in a 2006 ford ranger, but i couldnt stomach the hit in the wallet with a new car (depreciation) especially with it being a ford.in 2 years i would owe twice what its worth. With a toyota, i will never be upside down, i paid nearly $3,000 less than blue book.
I got this car, with 9500 miles, someone already took the hit on it with initail depreciation. I paid $18,000, iot came with the factory toyota warranty, and then after that, iots covered for an addtional 6 years, 100,000 miles with an extended warranty. i paid 600 down, they gave us an UNHEARD of $2750 for trade in on her saturn. it is in sad shape too, none of the windows and locks work, its all scratched and its biggest problem is, its a saturn. LOL.
My biggest thing was, its a toyota and its AWD, so she will never call me to tell me she got stranded on the side of the road, or stuck in a snow bank...i dont have to wrory about it at all when im in iraq.
