Hi ,

Way to go. I am really happy that you were able to get another van. I

would buy one of those for my wife in a heartbeat if we needed it, but will

have to wait until our Trailblazer is paid for, but I am happy that your

weight loss is still doing well.

My brand new van :-)

Well, It doesn't look like the lady that owns that ole hog that came

flying at me is going to be held responsible. I HAD to get into a

vehicle NOW as my rental actually ran out today (Sat.) I had my heart

set on a Chevrolet Impala.....it was SOOOOO nice, but I couldn't beg

enough rich aunts and uncles for the money to help with a down payment

so my payments wouldn't be out the wazzoo, so I was at a loss as to

what I was going to do...........then on Thursday night my husband was

looking at a piece of paper that had cars sales in them from the

previous weekend. They had a Chrysler Town and Country DIRT CHEAP and

it was brand new (9 miles on it). I called on Friday morning to see if

by some slim chance they still had that van. I really wansn't looking

for a van cause I knew I couldn't afford one since my only trade in

went up in smoke. Anyway, when I called they told me they still had

it, but they didn't know if they could sell it to me at the old sale

price as that sell went off 4 days earlier. I told them what happened

to me and they came back and said their manager said yes that I had

two to choose from at that price.

I had already been pre-approved for a loan, so I called and made the

arrangements to pick up a check and my husband and I went last night

and picked up my brand new van. I think it has 190 miles on it now

(waaaaaah), but it smells so ......new. It's a metalic light

blue...it's sooooo pretty. I just hope the hogs stay out of the road

now....LOL

I am still doing great on my weight loss too, that hog must have

knocked something out of me, I was losing about 1/2 pound a day, and

now I'm doing anything from 1-2 pounds a day since that happened. I'm

now down 64 lbs. WooooooHoooooo !!!!

I am so happy for you....maybe she isn't responsible in a criminal sense, but I

am sure if

you sued her, she would be....however, there is no joy in winning a suit such as

that. Now

you will be the envy of all the other mini=van moms!!! and way to go on the

weight loss,

that is awesome!!

I'm a mini van Mom ? Oh my, I didn't think about that....lol the last

(and only) child to get out of the house is 16 1/2. I had to get

something large enough to carry all my sound equipment where I travel

and sing, thats why I got the van. I really had my heart set on a

Chevrolet Impala, it was large enough too, but the money didn't come

together right for me to get it and get my payments down where I

wanted them, and I was NOT going to go into debt again for anything.

This van was a real STEAL, and my payments are almost 100.00 a month

less than my last one (which were kind of low for a van anyway), and

this one will be paid off only 2 years later than the old one.

Maybe an Impala next time.........if I can stay away from the hogs...LOL

,

That's fantastic that you've found some understanding/help from a

dealership. I hope they, and your family, have a long term

relationship of continued repeat business. There's no shame in a

business understanding customer's special needs and circumstances and

those customers rewarding that understanding with loyalty.

Not having a car and/or having car issues is a great way to stress

your life. I'm glad yours and your family's life will have a little

less stress in this area.

Hopefully pigs stop flying for you now too.

Hi ,

I do not blame you for wanting the Impala. That is one of the nicest cars

on the road right now and if we ever buy another car, it will definitely be

the Impala, and preferably the SS model because of my need for speed and how

sharp that model looks, but would definitely take the LT model too.

Re: My brand new van :-)

I'm a mini van Mom ? Oh my, I didn't think about that....lol the last

(and only) child to get out of the house is 16 1/2. I had to get

something large enough to carry all my sound equipment where I travel

and sing, thats why I got the van. I really had my heart set on a

Chevrolet Impala, it was large enough too, but the money didn't come

together right for me to get it and get my payments down where I

wanted them, and I was NOT going to go into debt again for anything.

This van was a real STEAL, and my payments are almost 100.00 a month

less than my last one (which were kind of low for a van anyway), and

this one will be paid off only 2 years later than the old one.

Maybe an Impala next time.........if I can stay away from the hogs...LOL
