Each morning my sweet hubby will get up and start the car so
we can have a warm ride to work. Most the time the good ‘ole jeep will start up
but lately it has been acting up. We currently
drive my husband’s jeep everywhere. It is the only transportation that we have
and while I love it, I believe it is finally time to let it go! This jeep is
about 20 years old and used to be his grandpa’s. It has over 250,000 miles on
it and while the engine runs fine but the transmission is going out. It likes
to leak transmission fluid EVERYWHERE! So finally after much discussion my
husband and I decided to get a new car. I had no idea how many different styles
and brands of car’s/suv/truck there were out there! At first we were just going
to buy an older used car. We thought of getting a 2007 or 2008 car and just use
it till we can afford a nicer one. Then after doing some research we realized
that buy spending a couple thousand more we could get an even nice car. It went
on and on and then all of a sudden we were looking at cars close to 20,000
dollars! After we can back to earth and figured out exactly how much we could afford
then next step was to figure out if we wanted a car with good gas mileage or a
SUV that had more space and bigger for the kids. I am leaning more towards a
car but I still have no idea what we are going to get. Next Monday we are
taking the whole day off work and have decided to go look at cars. I am crossing
my fingers that the good ‘ole jeep will last that long!
