New Car!
We now own a brand new Honda Accord. (and 2 cellphones, so 1) Richard has one in case while travelling back and forth to Vernon and 2) so scheduling can get a hold of me at all times. Annoying but necessary when being on-call)
The car is silver grey, and a DXG, the plainest of them. Which still has everything we need. It's pretty nice. I ended up having to leave and go to a massage appt., while Richard was getting the 'good guy price', which is for the best...as I am a bad negotiator and also a bad negotiator sidekick. We got a better deal because of him though.
So, we are excited, more me than Richard. But then he'll get to drive it 5 days/week starting in Sept.
Now of course, we are thinking that we definately ahve to get a little truck for camping as who wants to take a brand new car camping? Though going around here would be fine...still what if a tree branch brushed against it?

CongratsQ! The last new car we bought was an Accord. We still saw it being driven around up a couple of years ago.
What did you do with the Intrepid?
It is still with us, but we're not sure what to do. we might try to sell it, or donate to Kidney Society. Unless one of your family would like it?
No, that's OK, we just got rid of our our Intrepid. The insurance company wrote it off after it got inspected for hail damage, so we took the money and gave them the car, much to Sam's disappointment. He liked that car, but it needed work that we really didn't want to pay for.
Welcome to the world of silver cars, a world in which you will have difficulty finding it in parking lots because it seems that 85% of cars are silver. Thank goodness for remote controls that blink the headlights when you press them.
Yes, I have noticed that it is the going colour right now. I actually like red cars, but I guess it would be more difficult to keep clean.
