Our new baby

[rayvyn2k]

Our old car blew the transmission on Friday.

We rented a car and had the Buick towed to the shop. The repair would cost 2400.00. Hubby decided we would just get a new car.

So, at 8 am yesterday, we were getting our car repaired, by 2 we were on our way to CarMax, and by 5 we had signed the papers on our new baby.






It's dark blue with rainbow metal flake. It's got everything, including a sun roof, back up camera, nav system...just everything. And bonus, only 27k miles.

My head is in a whirl at how fast it happened. My husband is not known for making snap decisions.

I told him it doesn't count as a birthday gift. ;)

I'm going to get a tattoo today. Hubby and I designed it. It's going to celebrate my OTP. I'll post a pic later.

I was about to ask if that was for your birthday,  but I see it isn't.  Mine isn't as nice as yours, but I have not had one moment's regret in buying my Hyundai Elantra three years ago.

That's good to know. Another friend said they loved theirs too.

I really was NOT expecting it.

We went to https://www.carmax.com/ because my Mom has bought two cars from them and been happy both times. Plus there is amazing choices.
So far, we absolutely love it.

Sounds kinda like a birthday gift, for both of you! Glad you have a good, dependable car. I know that other one had issues from time to time.

Pretty! And, a necessity. NOT a birthday gift. :)
