Goodbye and Hello

Goodbye is in order for my first official car (bought by MYSELF alone-that’s another page long post about the mistake that I made as some say, I call it a lesson learned!). Judy, the Jeep is no longer a member of the Stultz family but do not be mislead, she will NOT be forgotten. She was a good vehicle and she definitely earned her keep this past winter with the random amounts of snow that we got. She hauled my tail to work for 2 and half years up and down 52, a few times barely missing the drivers not paying attention. I will never forget the time she kept me safe crossing #8 out of our neighborhood last October and we (I’m sure by inches) missed another car coming that I swear did not have their lights on while it was still dark out that morning. She loved to blow her horn and slam her brakes on tailgaters (ok well maybe I was in control but it sounds better if she did it!) To all who knew her, knew she was NOT <3MY LOVE’s<3 bestest friend because he called her a “jip” and 98% of the time resided in the passenger seat of Judy. She upheld her end of the dealer in what I call being a faithful and good vehicle, but she is now gone to where I do not know. The story of her departure day from NC was one that will NEVER be forgotten. She was bought by someone from WV and it was very obvious she was being bought to resale (I guess I priced her too cheap…insert a tablespoon of sadness here). The gentleman (strike that immature 20 something year old male) was disrespectful to the bank when doing the title transfer (short details: tells us he didn’t bring his license and wanted to leave it blank because it might end up going in someone else’s name), but after about 15 minutes or more with that issue (total time at bank-2 hours), the deed was done and Judy was his. So, here’s a toast to Judy for being good to me…. THANKS JUDY!!!



Hello is in order for my new vehicle. Whatever that may be has not completely been determined, but the specs will most definitely include 4-doors and 22 plus city gas mileage (meaning at least 28 highway)-YAY! Tonight will possible make day 3 at the Toyota dealership, so here it is…… the potential:



Although we have not yet purchased the vehicle, we have weighed out other options of different makes and models but we keep coming back to this one. If you have a car you love, let me know… I can be a persuaded person at times!

Until next time or new car status---PEACE OUT!
