We bought a car!



That's right! A Toyota Rav4 2013 XLE to be exact and we are both absolutely thrilled! Originally we had bought my fathers old 2009 Rav4 off his hands a little over a year ago, but he got into an accident (not his fault) and totaled his Prius (which he only had for a month!) and because he has a lot of distance to cover for his job David and I let him "borrow" it. We were supposed to have it returned after our wedding, and then later after my father went to Poland.... and then that date again got pushed up to the New Year after my birthday....and then again till Easter... and there was pretty much no end in sight of the borrowing. I'm glad to be able to help my family out in a tight situation, but living in New Jersey sadly you really need a car to get around. I mean, walking the 5 miles one way to the grocery store was good exercise for me but took way to much time out of my day and forget trying to go anywhere else; America seriously needs a better Mass Transit system. As I mentioned in my previous post David had gotten sick and I wanted to take him to the doctor. I basically had to haggle to get a ride there and then again later to pick up medicine and it was sort of the straw that broke the camel's back if you will. I felt helpless as a wife to not be able to get medicine for my husband and what if there was a real emergency? So I just turned to him and said "David, let's buy a car." and he nodded in agreement and said "Sure." So we did!!! It was expensive but I'm ecstatic to have  this as our official "first car" (the other wasn't legally under our names). Some awesome features include:

Auxiliary audio input and iPod integration
USB connection


  • re-wired for phone
  • Bluetooth wireless data link for hands-free phone

    USB connection 
    Steel Wheels 
    Sunroof 
    Back View Camera
    Built in Navigation
    ETC. 

    Long story short, it's a pretty pimp ride that I highly recommend. :)
