Unhappy Sad Weekend...

Well this weekend was a sad one. I made the decision to trade my truck! I picked up this 2010 Lancer GTS. Not sure what a country boy is doing driving a blue car with racing stripes but something about it just made me want it! lol My fiance also wanted me to get something more modest for when we start a family but oh well, I'm gonna have some fun wit it. The trade in wasn't the best on my truck but they took off almost $9K on the car bein a 2010 so in the end it basically evened out. Here's a few pics...

Plus it's a good color! I'm rather fond of bright blue!

One of my friends tried to pattent an electric blue color as Franchi Blue. That's how much I like blue. haha. Bet that gets some good mpg too.

I do really like the blue. I never thought I'd own a blue car (love black!) but it is a really nice color. On the sticker it lists average of 26-27. So far the computer says i'm getting 31! We'll see how accurate that actually is though once I fill it up for the first time.

If I'm correct, the GTS is front wheel drive, and is around 160hp... lol

The Evo is awd and has lots of hp
