Snob-a-peal or Reality

Old Car
boohoo I loved being a Snob. One of my neighbors said the Mercedes was a Snob Mobile.  Well,I came down to reality when my husband told me the Mercedes just does not get good gas milage. And no telling how high it will go and if it goes down that will be good for us...So my husband sent out messages on the internet to some dealers and of course in a few minutes we had half dozen dealers begging for our business.  So he went out to some dealers by his self because I just can't stand going through the rig-a-me-roll of dealing with car salesmen. He came home and said after about 3 dealerships he went to he finally got a good deal on the Mercedes.  So I went with him yesterday and it was Easy because he already did all the foot work all I had to do was pick out the car I wanted.  SO I picked out a Black w/Gray interior  Hyundai, Elantra. So I had it picked out and we where gone from the dealer ship in about 2 hours with the car I wanted an a check to boot.  They traded us and gave us some cash back.  That is not saying the Elantra is not a really nice car and gets 40mpg. an more on the highway. That is the reason we traded because of the gas...But I do love the new car and Happy we did the good deal...I am not going to say OK GAS you can go up!! No I have to many family that have to buy that stuff and it hurts every time we go to the pump.

  1. Nice car! Now you can go places more. Our Dodge truck cost us $117.00 yesterday to fill up and it wasn't even empty. My Mazda filled up at $47.50. James bought me a bike that is peddle powered. Lol!

  2. I love your new car! It will be nice to see it in July when you come to AZ. I am trying to sell my "Snob Mobil" too (on eBay), but I will not give it away since I love it soooo much.

  5. Way to go guys! I love your new car! I, like you, love our Prius. It gets up to 51 mpg if we drive it correctly, but most of the time we get 40 to 48 mph. I know you will love driving it. Hay, I love what you wrote on Renea's blog about how much you love her. That was BEAUTIFUL & very well put. We love you all so very much too!
