changing positions within my company instead of losing my job. With this new position though i'm going to have to "hit the road" so to speak. I'll have to travel to Wichita, Omaha and Springfield each once a month. I'll probably need to do some overnights...i'm a little worried to take the Kia in fear it will get broke in to. So i guess i'll risk driving the old Toyota with over 100K miles on it. I'm just worried about a Kia sitting overnight in a hotel parking lot.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
