My husband and I have talked about buying a new vehicle at the end of this year. We were waiting because sometimes you can get really good deals at the end of the year. Well, we didn't wait.
He got a pre-approved loan letter in the mail from the credit union. The interest rate was too good to pass up. It expired May 31 and he would be at work almost the whole month of May. We decided to see what we could find.
I didn't want a car. It's getting hard on my knees to crawl in and out of a car. I really like a truck. It's easier for me to get in and out of and I feel safer.
I had an idea of what I wanted, either an SUV or a truck. I was contemplating an Equinox or a Colorado. Yes, both Chevy products. He's a die hard Chevy man. I'm OK with that. I trust his judgment on most things. I drove a Trail Blazer...I really liked it. I drove a Silverado...I really liked it. I drove a Colorado...I really like it. I didn't drive an Equinox...already did that.
Either one of the vehicles I drove would have been fine. I had to consider the cost. Even though we were approved for a decent amount and could get a Silverado, I didn't like the idea of having really high payments. I don't like feeling like I'm in a bind financially. Been there, done that. I chose the Colorado. It's a nice ride and substantially less expensive than the SIlverado. So here's my new ride...and it's a V8. Sweet!!!
