That’s my biggest concern. My wife’s 11 year old Chrysler 300M was sideswiped by a large deer about a month ago. She hates driving it now. Mechanically the car is completely undamaged and runs great for a car with 160k miles on it. Really nice interior, too.

So we decided I’d “drive it into the ground” on my commute. Now she drives the Scion xB...

I was doing the 120 mile daily round trip last year. Luckily this year I started a new job that requires only about a 50 mile round trip. Nice timing on my part.
