New Car

As some of you know I've been driving this sexy beast for the last 9 months. My Durango had turned into a paperweight making sure the driveway was held down good. I loved my little red truck. It was so much fun..but the oil pump went out in it :( So we took the Durango into get an estimate on what it would take to fix it.. they suggested by a new transmission. We called a repair shop and the price quote was several thousand of dollars to fix it. And that would only fix the transmission not everything else that's wrong with it. Plus it had almost 160,000 miles. Double :( :(. I was really really bummed. Joe and I had talked trading in the Durango. We'd tried to sell it for months with no luck. But really whose gonna take a car that needs a ton of work. So we were leaving the repair shop and directly across the street from where I was pulling out saw a sign that said "We specialize in cars 9,999 and under!" I had time to kill and thought why not! Lets go look.
We drove to Citte Center and looked around. Let me tell you, they were FANTASTIC! They were VERY nice. NOT pushy at all. Didn't try and force us into something we didn't want. And were very helpful! And they gave us a pretty decent trade in for my Durango. We ended up buying this! A 2005 Chevy Malibu. VERY VERY clean inside. Had 54,000 miles on it. I'm not a car person. I never have been. I love 4 wheel drives and things with big tires. I was really skeptical but the test drive was great! This car is awesome and I love it!


(like that big spot in the driveway.. that's from my old Durango!)

I would recommend going to Citte Center to anyone. If anyone is looking to go there let me know! I've got a little token to give you that shows we referred you. I have never been treated as good by a car dealership ever as I have there.
