New Wheels and a Whole Lot More...



As many of you know Andi had her car, which she affectionately refers to as Jaws, since 1994. Last week she received a phone call from Bob (our trusty/local/dad-like mechanic) with the news she had been dreading for years...it was time to spend our money where new cars are sold.

Saturday we spent the morning test driving Volvo and Subaru wagons. It didn't take long to realize the Volvo was the way to go with two people over 6' tall. Tonight after a day of packers, we picked up our new 2009 Volvo XC70. Andi drove Jaws to the dealer and had a few moments with the car before jumping into the new and very quiet wagon.

The Honda set some high expectations....we are hoping the Volvo will last nearly 15 years and at least 255K miles. Name is TBD, stay tuned.
