I got a brand new car last night!

Late last night!

Man, there’s more paperwork involved in buying a car than then I even remember. Then again, I haven’t bought a new car in almost 12 years.

I bought a 2007 Toyota Prius. It is silver. It is way cool and I love it! I put about 50 miles on it today alone and it still has full tank of gas.

No, I don’t typically put that many miles on a car in one day. Today was unique. And long. I’m excited about the car but my energy level is catching up with my distinct lack of sleep last night. I’ll have to write more about the car later.

    Woohoo!

    I am doing the happy dance for you!

    Is that Prius one of the new hybrid cars? 

    How does it ride and more importantly, what made you choose that out of all there is to select from?

    Thanx,

    Hi! 

    You will love the Prius!!  My Wife and I have a 2005 Prius and we drive the hell out of that car … it is fast, zippy and gets good mileage and is not that expensive to maintain!!

    10 gallons never went as far!!

    Good luck and have fun!!

    Yea, new cars are the best.  Luckily, my BIL worked at the dealership I got my car from so I went down to pick which one I wanted, went to work so he got the paperwork altogether, then after work, I went down to sign the umpteen amount of paperwork and ran away with my car Wink
