The Aveo isn't that bad of a little car, loaded up, an unbelivable amount of room and the best thing about it is it cost me around $18 to $20 in gas a week to drive. I don't think it looks that bad.

I've been playing used car salesman to support my daughter & 2 grand kids. I've bought, fixed, cleaned up & sold 25 vehicles since a year ago this past July. Made about $5 an hour on them .

The run was on a 2&1/2 mile stretch on a road called the goose pond, when you are coming down off a hill to it you can see all the way to the BIG curve at the end of the stretch. I have a RENNtech kit (pulley & ECU) so I have no limiter with 285/35/19's on the rear.
