I just traded in my van!

[Kelly]

I traded in my van tonight:bliss: I've had several expensive problems with it over the last six months, it had 119,000 miles on it, and I just didn't like it anymore. So, the boys and I went car shopping and I got this, a Chevy Equinox in Salsa Red. Mine is a 2005 w/ 23,000 miles. Woohoo:lol:

I even bargained them down quite a bit, all by myself. My first time! I told Brent I was coming home with something but I don't think he believed me:lol:

Very very nice car! (or whatever it's considered, SUV or crossover or whatever)

And :woo: for doing the negotiations by yourself - that's great!

[LISA]

Very nice! Congrat's on the new ride :)

[Dennis]

[Bonnie]

I like that!

[Kelly]

Thanks guys! We're supposed to pick it up tomorrow!

[Mary DK]

Cool Kelly! :aok:
Funny you posted this... I have decided that I don't want a van either, well actually my van is being totalled but I don't want to get another van. We are shopping for something SUV like instead.
What other ones did you check out? What sold you on the Equinox? Besides the super hot color, off course!! :ok:

Great job! I hope you enjoy your new car.

[Lyoshka]

Girlfriend, you were serious about getting rid of that van, eh? :lol: Good job! I like that Equinox! So, when are you going to take it for a spin up this direction?

[Bev]

Very nice Kelly! :aok:

Thanks guys! It's sitting in my driveway now, weehee! Lena:lol: I don't mess around, ya know! Hopefully I can come up soon!

Mary, I chose the Equinox because I really liked how the outside looked. It also has a TON of legroom in the back. Brent is TALL, so I needed to make sure that there would be enough room for carseats with the front seats all the way back. The backseat moves back/forth 8 inches (I think) so you can have more backseat legroom or more cargo room. That's a neat feature. And I liked the color:giggle:

Ooohh....nice wheels...and pretty red.
