Working on the alero.....finally

[MP99Alero]

So, I'm going to finally put my 99 alero back on the road. The wife has agreeded to let me spend whatever is needed to get the reg up to date. Then with tax returns we are getting her a new car, or suv, and the getting rid of the family car. She has agreed to let me use the money from the sale of the family sedan, about 2k, on the alero. I'm just looking for sugestions on what to use the money on, its going to be a daily driver so I still needs decent gas milage and some comfort. any sugestions would be appreciated.
