You say goodbye and I say hello....hello, hello.....

Sometimes I make the big decisions rather quickly....it's the little ones that take forever. I got a call from my leasing company a week or so ago, and after playing phone tag for a bit with Janice, I made an appointment to test drive a new ride on Wednesday.....and well, I went and picked it up today.

I LOVED my Honda Pilot....it drove so well, was roomy, fun, zippy....everything that I liked in a vehicle....BUT....UGH, 17 miles to the gallon - killing me!! So, I traded it in today for a brand new shiny Nissan Altima.

So, goodbye Pilot.


HEL-LOOOOOO Altima!! :)



It's been almost 7 years since I've driven a sedan. I loved my last one, my precious "Rose". My first car ever, a pink Geo Prism. After driving an SUV for the last 5 and a half years....it'll take a bit getting used to again....but with as neat as my new Altima is already.....the mourning period might be faster than I think.

On my drive home.....I realized that there are a million Altimas on the road. At one point, I was at a stop sign, and I was waiting for my turn behind TWO of them. Isn't is funny how you don't notice these kinds of things until you drive one of your own?

Oh, and I already know that my horn works. As I was taking the back way to my house, this HUGE truck didn't even look and pulled out right in front of me! I laid on the horn....and he did what anyone does that makes that kind of mistake.....sped up and got away from me as fast as he possibly could. :)
