The New Roo

With gas prices continuing to go up, and with my many miles I drive per day, we decided it would be wise to buy a newer, more efficient car for me to drive. We figured that the amount of money I'll save per month on gas will almost pay the car payment on this new one.

We found a really good deal on one from a dealer in American Fork, drove down there, found the car, and the salesman came back and told us that the car had been sold to someone else two hours before we got there : ( Luckily (for us), the guy couldn't get financing, so the sales guy (First name Dempsey--Mel kept wanting to call him Patrick) called us immediately, and we went down and picked it up. Still haven't given him a check for the car. He said "just mail us one when you get a minute." Pretty cool.

I studied a ton of cars, but found that the Subaru was the best fit. All-wheel-drive, 30 mpg, one of the top-rated cars for safety, and it's a nice-looking car. Here are some pics of our new Subaru Legacy 2.5i Special Edition Sedan:











And, a picture of David Beckham from last night's RSL game. Mel was a little excited...
