Does This Officially Make Me an Opponaut?

The final glimpse of the Toyota I learned to drive stick on.

I have officially sold my Corolla, you know the one that has no problems whatsoever, to fund bodywork and some minor preventative maintenance on the wagon. I got a very fair offer from Carmax, and as it approached its 110k mile maintenance, I figured the difference in cost to have this done and list privately would be moot having to deal with the craigslist crazies.

I’ve had the car for 5 years, and in that time it’s been with me from California, to Nevada, Colorado, and now Arizona. It’s been a rock and has never left me stranded.

I hope it’ll bring as much joy as it did to me, while I learned to drive stick, to the next person to purchase it.
