- I traded in the Caravan today, but I shall forever be the Minivandian.
- We ended up buying the car we test drove on Saturday.
- It’s amazing how easy it is to drive a new, small car after driving my old, broken-down truck for a few months.
- Irish Woman is getting used to driving a stick again.
- Girlie Bear saw the car and had absolute happiness in her eye. Apparently she believes that eventually the shiny new car will be hers to drive.
- Of course, by then, it will have scratches, scuffs, door dings, and a worn-out engine, if it happens at all.
- Today was the least stressful experience I’ve ever had in buying a new car.
- It’s nice to walk into the dealership with your financing taken care of, have the price for the car you want to be pretty much set in stone, and work directly with a sales manager.
- While we waited for all the paperwork to be drawn up, we window shopped in the show room.
- Remember what I said about how expensive pickups were? They have nothing on luxury SUV’s.
- The dealership taunted me by having the truck I want in the configuration I want at a reasonable price. Here’s hoping they have something like that when I come back in a few years.
- It’s kind of nice to read a book and see the names of friends doing extraordinary things.
- Taking a 4 year old to a pizza buffet and watching him try to make up his mind of which one he wanted to devour first is one of the more fun things I have done lately.
- You know, I wish I was surprised that when I tuned the TV to a network dedicated to programming for young children, the most common advertisement was a trashy, over-sexed commercial for the St. Patrick’s Day from a chain of liquor stores.
- Tomorrow, my primary task will be to drive around the airplanes and not hit the airplanes.
