Short but (semi)Sweet

By now all of you have probably heard about my super duper car. In September of 2008, Sean bought me an Audi Allroad. Its got silver exterior, black and gray leather seats, that walnut looking panelling, all electronic gadgets, butt warmers in the front and back seat, those new fancy, yet annoying, headlights and a sunroof. It's super fast and has rockin quick pick up. I like to drive fast and this thing was all that and then some! Aidan said it looked like a rocketship.

We all loved (note the past tense) this car. It totally rocked! That is when it wasn't bleeding us dry! Talk about a MONEY PIT! Luxury is not always worth it... in the long run. That daggone car cost $250 for one stinkin spark plug to be fixed. Not to mention the cap that got screwed on too tight during an oil change that cost $165 to fix cause it caused a leak. Most recently, like 2 weeks before Christmas, we dropped almost $3000 on new front and back brakes, something called CB boots and a 55,000 mile checkup. Last weekend the service light came on Sunday afternoon. Sean took it to a mechanic by the house. After 3 days and another $800 we got the car back Friday afternoon around 4:00.

Yesterday, saturday, Sean drove that super duper rocketship straight to the Nissan dealership in Annapolis and traded it in for a SUPER DUPER COOL nissan Pathfinder. It's really nice and it's just like my old nissan Xterra.

I totally LOVE it! So do the kids and they are the biggest critics!
