neither, it's combo ftw!!!

just as i had my heart set on the go, i remembered maverick frm biz school who drives a combo and decided to drop him a sms. and he strongly advised me to get the combo.

so i popped by to look at the combo with my dad. and boy was it impressive! but nothing was more impressive than the amount of financial commitment involved. at slightly over 43 grand, it was priced in the same league as cars.

then came the lengthy discussion with my parents. while i was slightly in awe of the combo's powess, i still thought it too pricey. ultimately, the safety factor swung heavily in favour of the combo. the abs and 4 disc brakes made it the best candidate, in my parents' opinion. especially since i have never driven anything sans abs or 4 discs brakes on a regular basis before.

and so, in an amazing twist, i am in fact buying the first eurovan i had thought of!

anyway, i have booked the vehicle. here's hoping my financing gets approved ASAP and COE skyrockets tmr!
