New Family Member

We have a new family member! No it is not a baby, at least not for a few more months. After 6 wonderful years driving my Malibu, Brent and I thought it was officially time to trade her in for a new family member. Bye Malibu. Hello Grand Caravan.

Brent and I have been looking for months and I mean months for a minivan that we could afford. All we wanted on the new ride was less than 15,000 miles, power sliding doors, and a power liftgate. You know how hard that it to find. Nearly impossible. We had test drove a 2011 deluxe model and loved it. However it had features like a back up camera and touch radio that because it was a deluxe model and had these feature put it over our price range. We then found a 2010. It had everything that we wanted and even remote start. However, after riding in a 2011 the 2010 seats to us were horrible. Dodge upgraded the seats in 2011 due to customer complaints on the seats, so now they are a million times better.

So anyways, we had been looking for some time and I heard about a sale on the radio so we went to check it out. Lets just say they delivered a van to us and it was exactly what we wanted. Power sliders, power liftgate, dark charcoal in color and the best of all the price we were wanting to pay. So, now we drove in a new Grocery Getter!

So, now we are one of those people that park in the middle of no mans land in parking lots where no one will park next to us. You know those crazy people. Thats us now! I mean when you drive the car off the lot after buying it and it only rolls over 100 miles, you have to baby it for a while.

Goodbye Malibu we will miss you....NOT!
