GOODBYE 92 CHEVY SUBURBAN...
HELLO 97 HYUNDAI ACCENT...
Goodbye 12mpg gas hog with no air...
Hello 27 city/36 highway mpg gas saver with air!
I think Corby will miss the Suburban. We bought it from his work 3 years ago when we were the highest bidder on their auction. It was a very good vehicle for us - especially for Corby and the kids (NOT ME!) to take camping. But with gas prices continuing to rise, we decided to downsize our vehicle fleet. We sold the van several months ago, and that was the last of the vehicle payments for us for a while. We have had a car payment all 20 years we have been married. We felt like with 3 small kids we needed to have a very reliable vehicle. Now that the kids all have their own cars, we decided to go for a while without car payments. So watch for me in the little red Accent. I might not pass you going 80mph, but I'll tool along listening to the killer stereo and saving money with no car payment and less stops at QT for gas!
By the way - here's a plug for newspapers folks. We advertised the Suburban starting yesterday, and sold it to the first caller! We also purchased the Accent from someone who advertised in the paper. SO - NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING STILL WORKS!
