G’s new wheels
… well technically it’s S’, but we all know that the reason we got a second car is because of G.
After many months of thinking, talking, researching, and waiting, S bought the new Honda Fit.
Yep, our second car is even smaller than our first (a Civic). S wanted small. I wanted big… but he won that argument. In stereotypical fashion, I thought that our “baby” car would be something bigger, like a CRV, or a Rav-4, but after considering all the things I wanted out of a bigger car, I realized that my “needs” were only satisfied by a minivan, and quite frankly I’m not ready to go “there” yet. I wanted the space to get G, ourselves and our parents in the same car in when we’d go out places, but given the fact that our parents live out of town, it made no sense to drive around a much bigger vehicle than we need for a couple of days a year. With gas prices being (and staying) high, the cost we’d be saving on gas alone would make up for driving two cars out during their visits.
Our new vehicular baby comes home (following some upgrades) next week. Just in time for S to go back to work 🙂
Nice choice! I love the Fit. It is amazing how little of a car will fit a families needs. I don’t understand people who drive SUVs and mini vans, so I guess I am on S’s side of the argument. I can’t wait to see you and G!
Wow! That is a big step. Congrats on the newest addition to the family 🙂
