As an impartial Tennessean (who does carry), I had the immediate thought yesterday of "why do I need to know about something that might have occurred in February"?

Yeah, I was reluctantly leaning that way, too, just wanted to see if anyone would talk me out of it. Actually, this is the perfect time to choose WN: short flight, airport isn't that much further away, much cheaper, other options are ERJs.

Not certain how this qualifies as a dilemma.

The timing is better on the US flight. I chose the UAX, however.

Agreed.

Either way you'll still get the EQMs. I can say I even resigned myself to taking a window on a short CR2 flight recently (could get exit aisle but needed to get off the plane quickly).

I just looked at the book value of my car, and it's hovering around $5500 for private sale, so this isn't too bad. Assuming I don't have any other major repairs coming up, I'm going to try and get another 4+ years out of it. At some point, I'll have to trade up, because a 2-door and 2 small children doesn't work so well. My wife's car needs to be upgraded first - she's at least got a 4dr, but we're both driving compacts, and she's more often going to be carting the kids around.

Mine's 12 years old on August 9, 192k+, and has a resale value of less than $500. I'm looking for one more year out of this one and will go to the Pull-A-Part for less than $30 to try to promote that outcome.

My car is maintenance-free ;)

Weird. I just checked again (checked 30 mins ago). CO 682 on 4/30 just went from zeroed out to F4 Y4

I think I'm helped by the fact that it's a Honda, and it's pretty low mileage (just under 100K in 9 years, aided by a few years of near constant travel)
