    Default Woohoo! Bought a new-to-us car this weekend

    '97 Nissan Altima. Clean inside and out (including the motor and the undercarriage) Motor is strong. No dents or dings and just a little bit of paint issues is the only thing wrong with it. Paid half of its KBB value. Now we have a car we can drive out of town without worrying! I am really happy!

    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    courage to change the things I can,
    and the wisdom to know the difference    .

    Awesome!!!

    Pics?
    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

    You are going to love this car! I gave my Nissan Altima to my DS#2 when I purchased my new car this summer. They are very dependable cars. DS#2 likes it better than the Ford Focus he was driving.

    CONGRATULATIONS on your 'new' car!!!
