Good-bye Passat - you have been a great car and I'll miss you! It's time to go where there will be someone to take care of you if you ever are a little under the weather. I know that aunt kimmy and uncle james will be good to you - they have a good track record of taking good care of other cars. They will be able to find someone who can help you when you are feeling so well.
You were there to safely bring home the new babies from the hospital each time they arrived. You were there to warm our buns and backsides when it was old outside; And you did extra duty your last winter with us in this regard in Iowa! You were trustworthy to take on a trip where ever we decided to go and hold oh so much stuff in the trunk! Your speakers were always there to play "Alphabet of Nations" one more time or intrigue us with an NPR story. Your blue dash board lights were always so cool to look at. You were just a great car and I can't thank you enough.
Sorry for the abuse that you endured while in our care: the fire hydrant; the curb near Hy-Vee in West Des Moines; the fence next door; and way too many pieces of cereal and french fries on the inside. You endured us all and always got us where we needed to go.
We appreciate the 100K plus miles that you served us with and will leave with very fond memories. Enjoy Texas in your retirement years. I hope that all of those SUV's keep off your bumper. Good-bye!

I hope that when I "leave" my eulogy is half as nice as this one!
So, out with the VW and in with what??
A bike for Todd to ride to school...We're going to attempt to be a one car family until I start traveling again.
