    Ended up with a CPO 2017 Mazda Touring in black. Good tires would make a difference in the winter and if it got too bad I'd just get off the road anyway. Thanks for all the suggestions, I'm pretty happy about it so far but the honeymoon is just beginning.

    What VPN do you Recommend?

    I use NordVPN because I can put their script on my router and have every device in the house on it. I have another router without VPN that I can connect to because some websites detect VPN and block it (I'm talking about you BofA). I can switch back and forth as needed but mostly I'm on VPN.

    What do we think of the Jeep Renegade?

    I used to live in Omaha and have never heard of Omaha Orange. Curious, where did that come from? I'd dump the entire brand and go for something else. The dealer seems to be treating you well though.

    I'm thinking I could pay off a decent used vehicle just on the mileage checks I'll be getting. Some really interesting suggestions so far.
