When did Gordon get to be approximately eight thousand years older than John? Seriously, there is some messed-up aging going on in this strip, that's all I have to say.
And now that I've said that, I have to admit that the last two panels express exactly how I feel when I think of trading in my 12-year-old, 115,000-mile Civic. It's just a car, I know, but -- damn.

And now look what John is trading in -- maybe it's just supposed to look older and out of date, but since when has he been driving a vintage Land Rover?
OK, can we just please talk about them calling cars "she"? Who the hell does that? People don't even call ships "she" anymore. GOD!
