Car shopping was a breeze this time and Teresa is on her way home with a new Subaru. These cars are anything but simple now and the electronics are unbelievable enough that the dealer has people dedicated to holding classes to explain how everything works. This thing even talks to you if your driving is on the erratic side.

Congrats on the new car!

Thanks Jan. She already loves it!
She's a better person than me... I hate the electronics on the 2012 explorer I got from my parents estate... and that's like "ancient " compared to what they are now... The one thing about it is the seats are very comfortable...
I am really glad that she loves it already.... Did you trade her old one or keep it for daily local run around and keep the new one for "nice"..... a sunday go to meeting car???;););)😊😊😊

We still have my old Tacoma as a work truck and Teresa's Mazda is going to wind up with the Grands in South Carolina. It's a 2011 but has been kept up and will make a good car for them.

Did you get the Ascent? I've wanted one of those for a few year now. In blue, with gray interior. (just dreaming...)

We got the Outback. I drove it for the first time this afternoon when we went to the store. There is a lot of things to get used to. I was changing lanes and the car evidently didn't think I was good in my lane and it moved to a better spot.
