Did one car this morning...a smidge of a wince when I saw the price per gallon.
SPEAKING of cars...
So ye olde car that needed spark plugs and wires actually sounded weirder when we got it back...kind of a hissing noise when you hit the accelerator, and it wasn't there before. Brought it back to the mechanic, and they say "Oh, x and y now need replacing..." (I'll spare the details) Needless to say, it was way too much money on top of the rest of the money we'd already thrown at it the past 30 days. The saying is something like throwing good money after bad?
Longer story short, after a few days of research by a friend, and a couple of test drives, we ended up buying this.
2008 GMC Acadia, 110k, and a very good price. We pulled the rug out from under a couple of people who wanted to test drive later today. Thing is quite tricked out, and we can't wait for road trips and tailgating with it.
@GTO and
@BoxsterCy , we THINK the official color is white diamond tricoat. Unoffcial color? Vanilla.
