Good bye 2000 TL, hello 2006 RL

Exactly 6 years after the ownership of my 2000 TL, I will be taking delivery of my 2006 RL this Friday. I am so excited, but at the same time I know I am going to miss the TL. Perfect condition and zero problems at 55k miles and a lot of time and energy spent modding the car. The car will be traded in as is, if no one picks up my bodykit.

its still in the mid size lineup...and only 450-500 lbs heavier. Assuming you're not not trying to race it, its not really that big a difference considering the ridiculous hp boost, and the sh-AWD, along with the billion other standard features that don't exist in the 2000 TL. You'll love the car, and you made a great decision, although I think you coulda saved about 11,000 dollars by opting for the 2005 with all the same features. Either way, enjoy the car. Congratulations.
