New Zealand should be on that list way before Australia. Man do they get gouged for fuel...

On another note and tangent - the Hung Dog took yet another hit a few weeks ago and is pretty bent up (hooray for guys who let their autistic princesses borrow their Focus ST turbos...) Both front chassis rail are bent, passenger fender and front bar took it side on but it is still driveable. A war is ensuing with the other parties' insurance co and I've dealt with these guys before so I know what I'm getting into. After assessing the upcoming years' massive expenditures we are making a few changes. The truck has been taking far too long for me to get back together and operational so it is time for me let go of it and pass it into someone else's hands. Waifu's car is 16 years old and she's landed a new job that is a little harder to commute, and there's every chance my wagon will be written off even after pouring nearly $2k into it in the last 12 months which SUCKS. The Hyundai has been perfect for hauling work crap and as taxi service for the kids. She's getting new wheels (don't know what yet) and I either have to get a replacement myself or formulate a strategy to solve my working/taxi situation that doesn't leave me stranded in the interim. I'm not tapping out - just a change in plan
