New Car

Feb 02, 2010 22:12

Hey everyone, I got a car! I decided to go with a brand new car from a dealership because of the awesome deal I got on it and the warranty it had. Not to mention they let me finance it myself, and I didn't have to get a co-signer. I figured it wasn't that much more for a new cheap car than a used nice car. I really just wanted a small, dependable ( Read more... )

haha, fooled me, Marie. I was about to say you probably got seriously ripped off there...

But your actual car is cute! Love it.

OMG, I was planning on playing this joke so I was looking for a really shitty looking car. I was parking after my dinner break and this car appeared like something out of a prankster's dream. It's the ultimate crappy car. Lol, I'm going to call it Spot from now on when I see it at work.

My new car is so hella cute! I love it <3

Ooo, what if you named your car Fakir? It's dark and cute...

It looks a little too shiny for a Fakir. Rue might suit it better. *ponder ponder*

No wait it is totally Guffith, Gutts' and Griffith's shiny butt baby.

what a clever girl you are! how is it on the highway?

madonnalal February 3 2010, 14:19:50 UTC

37 mpg! And 25 mpg or something in the city. Possibly more since it's still really new. I've had it for three days and the arrow hasn't moved off the Full line yet :D

Oh, wow. That's pretty damn good. My dad's 2008 Camery gets about 31 mpg/highway. Does it take long to accelerate? (*is looking into cars early*) My moped is adorable but I might need to move to something a little faster/bigger/safer.

madonnalal February 4 2010, 00:03:00 UTC

Hurrr... um, it would probably accelerate really well if I could drive it properly. I am a really bad driver, so it's just mediocre for me. However, once I get back in the groove of driving a manual car, I'm sure this car will be Speedy Gonzales on Wheels. It is a very peppy car and is very quick to go, but I'm just not very good at harnessing that power yet.
Yes, please, get a car. Mopeds are nice, but they are useless in the winter and long trips. What kind of car are you thinking of?

See, I would love to have the car pictured first. Given that it ran well enough.

madonnalal February 5 2010, 14:27:47 UTC

The dude totally drove it to the parking lot, so it must have run at least that well. If you want help running around, looking for cars when you come out to Cleveland, I can totally help you out.

Also, Chipotle is totally hiring here. I got offered a job as they handed me my burrito. It's not the best, but it's a totally a job that pays money. Also, one of the girls who I worked with at Hydrations is working there. So you would have a mini-Miami-Alumni thing going on there.
