Well, it was bound to happen. After ten years of faithful service, Otis has finally kicked the bucket. While the car is technically still driveable, it has no third gear, so it doesn't go any faster than twenty miles per hour. How the hell am I going to stay ahead of those damn federal marshals if I can't drive faster than twenty miles per hour? I've had lots of memories with this car - many years of daily commutes to the job, road trips, outrunning the Alabama state police with a certain disgracefully aging gentleman, while all the while arguing over appropriate chase music - and it was a good car while it lasted. Unfortunately, the price tag of the repairs it needs now is simply too much for me to rationalise. Updates will come when a new car enters the picture, and the car is appropriately named. In the meantime, I've decided to donate Otis to the American Lung Association. Hopefully he'll be of service to someone that needs a car as tough as he is. Good luck, Otis, and godspeed.
