Our Brand New Car: KIA 5 door Forte


We just bought this car this morning. I think it is the first time we bought a brand new car and from a dealer, no less. We have always bought our cars through Greg's dad.....usually whatever is a good deal. There are many used cars these days and the prices are high. Usually you lose $2500 just driving off the lot when you buy a new car..so we have always been the 2nd owner with low miles..practically new. But this little baby had a rebate, a 10 year warranty and it gets around 35 to 40 mpg ...perfect for our notary business and this expensive gas. We got the titanium color...can't tell if it is this in the picture, but it is pretty. It even has a blue tooth so you can talk hands free and dial by talking. Perfect for me on long trips when I am driving. It will be Greg's most of the time.....but mine when we need to conserve miles on the van. It was hard writing the check......we have never had a car payment so this was a big check to write. We did our research and shopped around , got Grandpa's blessing ( he who knows alot about cars) and hope we did the right thing. Greg's car died last week so we had to make a decision quick....so we did. It is already fun to drive. Too bad we had no kids live at home to come out a see our first brand new car. They will just have to see it on our blog :)

Wow! Fun! I know you don't have kids here, but I want to come by and check it out! I can live vicariously.

P.S. Love the song!

I'll be right over and I'll drop off a few kids. Give them back in a week or two...
