I knew the time when I would no longer be driving the 626 was approaching, given it's 135k miles and deteriorating condition...I just didn't realize how sad I would actually be when that day came. We listed my car on Craigs List on a Saturday afternoon on a whim. All the while Ben was thinking we were never going to be able to sell it and therefore never make money on this ------- (fill in the blank). Much to our surprise, we had a serious buyer call within 20 minutes of having it listed. We arranged a time to meet with this potential buyer on Monday. They offered us exactly what we were asking and, therefore, at 6:00 on Monday I was officially carless...
Getting in the 626 for the very last time! Thanks for the past 8 years of memories!
So, in between these 2 pictures consisted of lots of carpooling, quality husband & wife time, and lots of researching SUVs on the internet. Who knew looking at new cars could be so time consuming and stressful!?! We finally compromised agreed on an SUV -- Volvo XC90 -- so now it was all about finding the right deal and the right color combo.
So, this past weekend we took a little trip {500 miles one way to be exact} to Wilmington, NC to pick up this...
Just forgive the crazy hair......it was so windy in Wilmington! And although I originally thought it was our compromise vehicle, after 3 days of driving it....I am in love! So, here is to the next 8 years of memories :)
