JEEP = FUN






Gary and I have been looking to buy a new car for a while now.  We had gone back and forth on what we need. Here is what our check list was. 

  1. 4 wheel capability/drives in snow
  2. Seats at least 4
  3. GPS
  4. Towing capability
  5. Dependable
  6. Storage space
The side list:
  1. Fun
  2. Convertible 
  3. Cool looking
  4. Fun!!!
We were very close to buying the Honda Pilot. It would have been great. It had everything plus alot more. But the salesman missed the mark with the price at the time that we were ready to buy. We also looked at the Subaru. Great but it drives slow and not very fun. Then we looked at BMW's very cool, but the salesman did not think we could afford what we wanted and wasted out time looking at used stuff. Man, salesmen who play around and make assumptions are really stupid. 

The Jeep salesmen almost blew it, and showed us some lower models and used Jeeps. But when we saw the top of the line Call of Duty model we knew it was the one. I would have preferred to have the white Rubicon, but the black call of Duty was really a guys car and that is what I have at my house. I am very happy with it. So fun! 

Not the most sensible car for sure, but we don't have to drive it everyday and who can put a price on Family Fun?
