Hello, Good-bye

Earlier this week, we bid good-bye to our 2008 Toyota Corolla, a vehicle that served us well for 7 and 1/2 years and 62,000 miles.  This car also served as my vehicle for my final two years at Highmark, and it also made at least two trips to the Outer Banks for our vacations.

In its place, we say hello to this little beauty:

A 2015 Chevy Malibu.  Let the record show that this will be Marilyn's car.  I am only hoping that she will let me drive it once in awhile.

As we did with our Equinox three years ago, we bought this car at Baierl Chevrolet in Wexford.  We even used the same sales rep, Ed Haskins.  Baierl earned our business this time around, based upon our experience, not only from buying the Equinox three years ago, but in the service we have received in the intervening years.

One other observation - for all the ways that our society has moved towards a "paperless system", an awful lot of paper is still generated when you buy a car.  Wow!

The New Addition....

The newest resident at Village Drive arrived yesterday, August 11, a 2012 Chevrolet Equinox.....

I can't show these pictures without mentioning how well we were treated at Baierl Chevrolet in Wexford.   We hate the process of buying a new car, but Sales Rep Ed Haskins and the folks at Baierl made it a very good experience.  If you are thinking of getting a new car, I can't recommend them highly enough.
