1,000 hours

So I was driving my car and noticed it had 1,000 hours on it!!!  I can't beleive I have driven that much.  My car only has 27,000 miles on it and I have had it for just under 3 years.  I was really surprised that i have spent 1,000 hours of my life driving and that's just in a few years!  I don't even have a long comunte.  It just made me think about how much time I have spent in my cars total!  Think about all the cars you've driven and how many miles were on them and how many hours that adds up to... WOW...

My lease is almost up and I have to start looking for another car again.  I have know idea what I am going to get this time... first I wanted the volvo c70, but now with the new house I'm not so sure I want that much of a payment... It is already about 10,000 less then my car now, but I'm wondering how much I want to spend and how I could be saving that extra money for more important things.  This leaves me wondering how cheap of a car I can go....
