It became an affordable luxury car paid for in large part by my Uncle, Sam. Lemme see...big federal tax bill or new Audi? Sort of a no-brainer.

Nice car, too.
Somewhere there is a young man changing truck tires in ankle deep mud, at thirty five degrees and wind blowing, hoping he will have the energy to attend his classes tonight at the local community college. Meanwhile the wife is working third shift at a factory while her husband cares for their child after he leaves night classes, and she hopes she has the energy to make it home and get her child ready for school before collapsing.

Both are paying taxes = Uncle Sam = tax credits = luxury car = paid for in large part.
