Finally did it!

Thursday the steering completely went out on my van. Friday we stopped at a local dealership to check out a 12-passenger van they had on the lot. Drove it. Hated it. This morning bought the Expedition that was parked next to it.
At the park this afternoon, a Toyota hybrid parked next to me. As if a message from Satan sent to make me doubt this decision. But, as much as I would love to drive a more ‘green’ vehicle, the reality is that I have three children. Two are very large teens with equally large friends. I have to be able to haul people. Hybrids that meet our seating needs are $30,000 used IF you can find one on a lot.
Check back in 2011. My teens will be in college and I’ll only be hauling Flower Child around. Hopefully there will be a better selection of used hybrids on the lots by then!
