So, we had an accident in the car a couple weeks back. When my lovely (although draxzaster said “hot” while we were in Vegas, and i would tend to agree with him) wife failed to yield the right-of-way, she slightly crunched the back of another vehicle. Anyhow, we got the car repaired for $500 out-of-pocket, and all the while, we were thinking “why not just get another car?” So we did…
We bought a 2005 Chrysler Town and Country Touring-class minivan with 28k miles on it. New, this van would have cost the original owner $33,000. It is simply the most luxurious auto we’ve ever owned. Fully-appointed with leather, power seats, DVD player (for the kids). We got it at a steal at $17,000.
Since we tend to drive our cars into the ground, I’m hoping this one lasts us the five to seven years we’re planning on having it.
For the record, I did not ‘fail to yield right-of-way’… the citation read ‘failure to maintain control of vehicle.’
