Newer Car

We now have a newer car--a vanilla 2006 PT Cruiser with 38,000 miles on it. Our old minivan had 175,000 miles on it and was 10 years old. Hubby thought it best to trade in the minivan before it needed a major repair. In addition, the PT Cruiser is a four cylinder car so it will get better gas mileage than the minivan.

The PT Cruiser is nice. Daughter #3 has one which is one of the reasons we thought we would get one, too.

However, I do miss the minivan. I spent a lot of time driving it--taking our daughters to college and back. We went on several family vacations with the car, too. It had a lot of good memories in it.

Sniff.
