Red face 2nd key obtained

Never again, I promise never again.......will I buy a used car without 2 keys. Or at least some wiggle room to buy it. And if I have to drop off said car to do it then it better be a lot of wiggle room. 'Nuff said. At least the wife has a key now if something goes amiss with the Camry. Lesson learned. Lets call it a "Stupid Tax" around $340 with a battery for the old FOB. That plus earlier work has busted the Volvo budget for the year. No more looking at goodies for it. The wish list is dead. Sorry vendors. I vented, I feel better. Wife is happy, life aint so bad. Still like the car but if I divided cost versus miles or months owned it would scare me. Yes I've kept the receipts. 3000-3500 miles/15 months. It is the spare ride. Maybe I can do suspension July of 18. Always thought "if it was just an inch or inch and a half lower" it would look cooler. So much for avoiding the depreciation monster cheapskate that I am. Still I am glad I have it and still looking at a possible 2nd one. S40/S60 under 7K. Life goes on.........Hi Ho (and apologies to Kurt Vonnegut RIP)
