"It means no worries, for the rest of your days."
I didn't intend to actually buy a new car today. I initially wanted to look around all week and find something I really liked by Friday and then make a decision, but I found a vehicle I fell in love with and was able to get a monthly payment plan I was comfortable enough paying.
So I'm the proud owner of a black 2005 Nissan Altima. It was a little more than I hoped to spend, but there didn't seem to be any point buying anything older and more used. This baby has less than 40,000 miles on it. And it has air conditioner (a feature that was disabled in my Kia because it would have cost $1,000 to fix). And it has all those fancy gadgets like an automatic locker for my keychain, power windows, a CD player, and even a place to store my sunglasses. This is the nicest car I've ever owned.
and I think I deserve it.
It took me a few minutes into driving to determine what song would be the first to grace my ears as I made my maiden voyage. I finally settled on "Hakuna Matata," which seemed appropriate (especially if the problem-free philosophy continues to hold true to my car situation), and then proceeded to listen to a variety of other kid songs (including more Disney, the Muppets, and Veggietales).
I still need a name for her, too. Any suggestions?
As I drove away from the lot, I gave my old car the finger and swore quite profusely at her.

Congrats! I think it's an excellent choice! 40000 miles means she still has a lot to go and 2005 means you are already past the big price drop that cars have in the first years. Hope it brings you luck.
ReplyDeleteI named my car Serenity based on Firefly. And epic music choice. I love The Lion King. A lot. Lol
