So I have always wondered if anyone had ever wrecked their brand new car and how horrible that must be. Well I learned first hand what that felt like!
We had just bought a 2004 Nissan Quest after selling my Santa Fe. I was not excited to be driving a mini van but this wasn't any mini van it was a cool mini van! It was leather with heated seats, DVD player, and even had sun roofs in the back!
So I picked up this van Thursday night and totaled it on my way to work Saturday morning! Yep owned it for 36 hours!!! I hit black ice going around a curve. Started going in the other line and I guess I just over corrected trying not to hit the on coming traffic, jumped the curb, and a small little tree stopped me.
Anytime I make sudden movements while driving Brigitte is quick to say "slow down mom-don't hit a tree again!" She wasn't even with me when it happened but daddy told her one time and it really stuck apparently!
So after all that we couldn't find a decent used van in our price range. It was nuts! So we instead decided to lease a Honda. This one still has leather and heated seats with one sun roof. But for some reason I am not excited as much about it. Maybe the wreck just ruined it for me or maybe once we get a DVD player I will like it more but right now I hate having to "watch my miles" since I only supposed to drive in 1000 miles a month! ERRR Oh and now Gabriel and I have the same color vechiles....:S
