My wife and I bought our first brand new car

Post by Joint Chiefs of Staff »

After years of buying used models we decided on purchasing a new vehicle. Reliability was the factor. We traded in our 2002 Intrepid and received $6500 for it which went to to the cost of the new car. Did I mention we got the new car tax free? w00t!

We decided on a black Chysler 300c. It's completely loaded to the hilt. The safety features are simply amazing! The frame made my Mercedes Benz.

I just faxed back the paperwork needed from me on my end. Jen's driving it home now as we speak. :D

My main concern on purchasing a new car was the insurance rate increase. Incredibly it only increased $25 more a month. :2cool:

ANyway congrats on your new ride...hopefully by summers end i will be able to afford a new one for my jen!
