bprmp -- That sounds like a pretty sweet deal! If it were me, I'd probably try to gut it out for 6 months with only driving to and from work and nowhere else. Bike, walk, public transit, whatever for all your errands, shopping, and weekend fun. But I really hate buying cars, so like Spork, it takes me a long time to find the right deal. Whatever you choose, it sounds like you'll be set up pretty nicely in the future.
