Default New Bag of Milk for Meeeee

So in attempt to save some money for my future with my lady, I've decided that I needed to ditch my 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. So I went today to a dealership and traded it in for this beauty. I've returned to my Honda (Acura) roots with this 2008 Acura TL Type S. It has more miles than I care for, but it's a Honda. It's got 111,800 miles on it, but I got it for $16,800. My payments have dropped $46/month and I'll save about $300/year in gas. It's a small reduction, but every little penny counts. I didn't take any pictures of the interior, but it's got black leather interior and since it's the Type S, it has all options (which are only Nav & Auto). I went with Auto so my girl could drive it in case I get drunk while we're out. I'll miss the Jeep, but I'm loving the Acura.

Nice. I'm jealous of the color

I bought mine because it was a 6-speed, but now I find myself occasionally wishing it was an auto. Especially since my wife broke her ankle a couple months ago I am official DD all the time now

:edit: Did you jeep ever give you any trouble? How many miles did it have? I've been considering consolidating my work and play cars, and the wrangler unlimited is an option if I decide to go to the dark side (blasphemous for a toyota guy lol)

My Jeep didn't give me any trouble. It was a 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X, 6spd Manual, 2.5" teraflex lift with Bilstein shocks. It drove pretty good, averaged about 17mpg combined.


Also, I took 2 more pictures tonight...they're not great since I took them with my iPhone 5. I also didn't feel like editing them on Photoshop, just used photobucket's stuff.

First thing I did was dump the plate bulbs.
