New Car-Finally!!!!
We finally were able to get the car purchase done back in June. It was a back and forth between a small SUV (earlier post) and keeping our crappy mini van. In the end the new car purchase won over and we decided on a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The actual purchase was pretty painless and the dealer we bought from was fairly easy to deal with, for the most part. I was able to get quotes from three different dealers and the one that gave us the price I wanted won out. They did try to give us close to nothing on our mini van, typical low ball tactics but since I knew that I could get more money for it I sold it that weekend for what I wanted. Not too bad!!!
Well, pictured above is our new ride. Pretty, sleek, and lots of electronic goodies to keep us entertained. Susan is happy, JA fits well in the front or back, and I get to feel happy that I won't be getting calls from Susan saying "Juan, I just heard a new noise coming from the van". Lord, I dreaded those calls. Anyhow, the only drawback? My epic trip to Spain next summer is very doubtful. Unless a miracle happens I don't think we can go . Maybe if I went by myself...
