Kurt B noted this anniversary on the Monte Carlo Mailing List before I had a chance to the other evening.... 20 years ago today (December 11) the Monte Carlo was discontinued. A quote from the GM restoration packet: "The 1988 model year marked the end of an era. The Aero Coupe had been dropped. The Monte Carlo was made available in LS and SS versions only. After approximately 3 months of production, Chevrolet opted to completely cancel the Monte Carlo model. Sadly, production ceased on Friday, December 11, 1987, at 5:29 PM." Heh ... can hardly believe it has been 20 years. Quite a lot has happened and changed since then....

Not completely, no. I can't say I'm pessimistic about my situation, but I'm not overly enthusiastic about it either. Medical bills play a big part into my "budget planning". But, gas, not so much. I think that is the case because something medical can be much more "catastrophic" than the amount I spend on gas each month, winter AND summer. Sadly, I'm not making anywhere near the hypotheticals in Northie's original post.
