It's the end of an era for me.
I've had my 2003 Sebring for 13 years. I loved it. Loved it so much.
But lately, there have been a lot of repairs. One or two, okay. But new breaks, new bearings, 3 oil leaks. It just starts to add up. And had I known 6 months ago I'd have all these repairs, well, that could have been money I put towards a down payment.
So it was time for a new car.
(and this was super sad. I really, truly loved my car. It was really sad trading it in. I know it's not a real thing with emotions and feelings, but still. I felt guilty. And I get emotionally attached to inanimate things)
Did a lot of test driving. Only had one terribly experience at a Subaru dealership (bad enough that Twin wrote an email to that employee's supervisor and I wrote a review on their FB page (we got apologies on both fronts)) and finally made my decision.
Introducing my new car Bindi!
It's a 2016 Honda Accord. I put in some extra money for a moon roof and leather, heated seats (something that's really, really awesome in cold MN winters) and even though I'm sad about my old car, I already love my new one.
