Well, it's been eight wonderful years that I've been with my favorite car, Torii the Galant. Yes, yes, I named my car after Torii Hunter. :) I love that car, it's my baby. Eight long years, that's longer than the other two cars I had combined!! But, alas, it's time for Torii and myself to part. Bittersweet indeed.
I hate car shopping. I'm in sales, and I hope people don't think that buying insurance is anywhere near as intimidating as buying a car. If they've had an experience with an insurance agency like that, they should see me... :)
I went on my first test drive last night... checked out a 2009 VW Jetta. It was jet black, and an automatic 6 speed... that's apparently something that will help the gas mileage... the safety features on this car are endless... It was really hard walking out of there without putting in an offer.. but the two cars I've purchased I've jumped on the first damn car I drove. With the Neon, that was a bad thing, with the Galant though.. that purchase has paid dividends!
The guy really wanted to sell me the car, he wanted me to sign papers right then and there. I'm not good at playing the game. I need to find someone around town who can go with me to play hardball. Last night I was like an open book, I laid all my cards out there on the table. it was bad. Tomorrow mom and I will be running around test driving... hopefully she can help me not open my big mouth.
Once I find myself a new vehicle, I'll have to figure out what which baseball player to name it after!!!!!!

It would be really funny if you named the car "Slowey"...hehehe. :)
:) Though I'd love to name my car after Kevin... I can't name my car anything associated with the letter V. Worst. Letter. Ever.
I'll have to wait it out, but I'm lovin JJ for my next car right now :)
