  • WOOT!

    As most of you know, my big guy had a car accident and it made the car undrivable, so it's taken to a garage to have them look at it and have the insurance decide if it is worth fixing.

    On Thursday, they finally come out and say the car is not worth repairing and telling us what money we will get for it. Okay cool, about damn time. They tell us we have till Tuesday and the rental car has to be turned back in. This after the first rental we got had to be returned because the rental place sold it while we were using it. Okay, who buys a car they don't ever set eyes on? Anyway, they give us a different car which is fine with me since it was easier for me to get in and out of the car they gave us in place of the one they sold.

    Friday, we go to the place we got my 2001 Corolla and damn if that salesman didn't really start to get on my last damn nerve! I was biting my lip so I would say "WOULD YOU PLEASE SHUT UP AND SHOW US SOMETHING NEAR WHAT WE ASKED ABOUT!" UGH! I was pissed because he walked us all over the damn place telling us the most asinine stories and now I'm in a bit of pain from walking all over the place. He did not get a sale and won't get a sale.

    Today, we get up early and go look at 2007 Chevrolet HHR LT. The minute I saw it I knew that is the car I was going to get, but I wasn't going to go all nuts in front of a salesman so I look at other cars and I'm still waiting for a salesman to come out. DAMN IT! I go walking all the way up to their office and stairs. Uggh! I still have a bit of trouble with stairs, so Mr. Mis is holding my hand to help me up and now I'm pissed. The guy walks up to us as we walk in and asks if he can help us and I'm ashamed to say I let go on the guy for not coming out and making me walk all the way up to the building. I know I look completely healthy and without a care in the world, but that is not the case. I did apologize and told him I was out of line. He said he forgave me and understood. I still apologized again when we were leaving.

    So, we looked at a few cars and let him sell us on the 2007 Chevrolet HHR LT. He took some off the price which was pretty damn good in the first place and I already knew that it was the car I was going to take. We pick it up on Tuesday after they inspect it and put their and the Chevrolet guarantee on it.

    This one? (your link doesn't work for me)


    A bit like a London taxi. It looks very comfortable, especially with a bad back.

      Mikkel I was just coming to try to fix the picture, but you have a picture of exactly what my car looks like! Thank you! It is very comfortable, has all the safety features I wanted and the salesman showed me the CarFax on it.

          My car already has a name. I named it Gibbs, so who can tell me where I got the name for my car from?

          The dealer called today to tell me my car will be ready for me tomorrow when I come in! *SQUEEE!*

          Mr. Mis says I am acting like a little girl waiting for Christmas to come.

              EricKei is correct and has won a dozen cookies! I am a big fan of the show and especially of Gibbs.
