Pssst... Of the many Fox convertibles I looked at, prices ranged from
$3,000 to almost $7,000 for mint. Obviously, the less you spend, the more
you'll spend - you know what I mean, but they can be picked up for a song
these days. Especially if the owner doesn't really know what he's got. If it
runs well, just throw on a new top for about $750 installed, and it'll look
fantastic. Or, as I constantly remind my wife, you'll NEED a spare set of
wheels when you drive a car that's pushin' 14 years now.
(Oh... and that patch o' Earth is why I'm not driving a 2006 GT convertible!
The new mortgage, even at last year's rates, is more than twice what we were
used to. Add to that all of the increased expenses that go along with a
nicer home, and it's a real eye-opener. Still, I'd rather live in Paradise
and be house-poor than be back in that little twin home we grew out of...)
