Last weekend our 1889 -excuse me, 1989- Honda Prelude conked out for the 50th (and LAST!) time. Tim and I had been discussing this eventuality already, and had decided to buy a new car in April or May, after we got our tax refund, and paid off the credit card. We could be a one-car family for a little while, but not for more than a month or so, especially as things are starting to get busy again at the Inn.

So, yesterday Tim looked on the Jenson Subaru dealership’s site to check their inventory. They had a 2010 Legacy 2.5i for sale at a very reasonable price, and were offering a good APR. Tim called and they did the credit checks over the phone and were able to get everything taken care of beforehand. Today, after work, we went to the dealership, tested the car (it only had 5 miles on it!) and signed all the papers. We were only there for a little over an hour. Easy peas-y!

Here’s a picture of our car:

Needless to say, Timmy is thrilled. He’s so happy to have another Subaru in the family! I admit, its a pretty sweet car, and I feel a lot better knowing that we have two safe, reliable cars.
