Run Eat Repeat

RER Gets a New Car!

My Life

FacebookTweetPin
8 Oct

Hello! How’s it going?

This morning I did my usual run/eat action and just right now am again realizing I DON’T HAVE MY GARMIN WORKING!!?!!%$#!!

Monican, get it together – you have a race this weekend.

Anyway. After my run and eat I showered and donned a RunEatRepeat tee just in case I forget what order they’re supposed to go…

(Available in my Spreadshirt Shop)

Then, I set off to run some errands.

(Note: Selfies are for the passenger seat but my car was off when I took this.)

So, I forgot to tell you that I GOT A NEW CAR!!!!!! If you also want to replace your car you have to check out the branded title cars Salt Lake City has available for sell.

Week before last my car I took my car to the bmw service, and I called my brother to ask his opinion on the things the mechanic wanted me to do. He suggested I might want to reconsider putting a bunch of money in it, and selling it before it got to 100K miles. So, I took his random suggestion and went with it. Those who don’t have the budget to buy a new car may conduct repairs such as auto glass repair or auto glass replacement. And if you need professional windshield services, you may contact an expert windshield replacement fort worth service. These repairs can improve your car’s safety and performance, and may even boost your car’s resale value. I’ve also heard that this Ceramic Coating Brisbane offers the best car paint protection, providing superior protection against the elements and environmental fallout such as bird droppings, decomposing insects, tree sap, air pollution as well as heat and UV damage.

I discovered a helpful website called ZeMotor, which has an extensive collection of used cars for sale. As I was browsing through their offerings, I appreciated how easy it was to find a car that matched my requirements and budget. You can also try it!

I did a ton of research. I printed out a great deal I saw online and figured I’d shop around and see who’d match it. I went to the dealer to test drive my dream car – a RED Prius C (it’s the compact Prius and is pretty small). Mostly I just wanted a red car, which may include accessories like snap shades.

I went by myself too! Isn’t that crazy?! I felt so grown up buying a car with no one there to agree or disagree or to give me advice. If you’re also planning to buy a new car and you need to have it delivered, you may use car shipping services from companies like RCG Logistics. Furthermore, you should consider looking into the available auto insurance policies for your car and compare their rates and coverage.

I ended up with an amazing deal. I don’t think the sales team realized I was not playin’. (I’m kinda good at buying cars, let me know if you want to hire me to help you.) I also heard that you can get good deals at www.Autozin.com so check them out too.

like its hard

My RED RED RED car. I have always wanted a red car, but have just went with the best deal in the past. I was super happy to get seriously an amazing offer on a red Prius. (Thank you Toyota Irvine.)

Now I just need some friends. Then, I can really live it up.

driving in the car

After my errands today I came back home for lunch. I’m glad I made extra fish last night for dinner – made lunch so easy!

This picture is a little blurry, but I snapped one and then dropped my phone and it restarted and I wasn’t about to wait for that to come back to life to take a clear one… #truth

One of my errands was to Costco, so there was also a lot of sampling action that was kinda part of this meal Winking smile

Question: If you could have any COLOR car – what would it be?

THIS IS YOUR YEAR.

      I hate the whole car buying process so I’m impressed with your skills. While I absolutely think it’s cool that women go buy cars on their own, I’m just curious about how you and Ben handle financial stuff. Understand if that’s too personal. I’ve seen other bloggers address it, and I’m always fascinated by how different couples operate. Do you guys just do finances separately?

      I bought my last car on my own- my MIL dropped me off (my car had been totaled) and was shocked. Frankly, it bothers me that the idea of a grown-ass woman going to buy a car alone is a big deal. My money, my car, my deal.

      My favorite color is one that hides the dirt 😉

      Congratulations!!! I just bought a new car a few weeks ago all by myself as well and it was so freaking empowering! The salesman was a little taken aback when I made it clear that I was not going for his gimmicks but he eventually came down to the price I wanted and we all went home happy. I was extremely happy because I got the exact car I wanted: a white Jeep Grand Cherokee! I love my new car now and I’m happy I shopped around a bit before buying. Well done on the purchase and have so much fun in your shiny new car!

      I got a new car 3 years ago, and I wanted a “fun” color car. After research and pricing, I got a RED Kia Soul (2012) and I LOVE IT! I still love it!

      My current car is a silver blue color. I like it but my car is EVERYWHERE. I have recently seen a bright green color, but by the time it is time for me to get a new car, I will probably want a different color.

      I really do like your blog (and you!) but you have to stop using “went” when you should use “gone.” It’s a huge grammatical mistake and you write for a living… Come on!

      In a nicer note, really cute car 🙂

      I’ve always wanted a sky blue car. Not sure why, but I do. I hate buying cars. Car salesmen just get so in your face, and sometimes won’t take no for an answer.

      My car is a light silvery-blue. I got it a year ago and it wasn’t exactly the color I wanted, but I still love it (and it was a super deal).

      Love the red on that prius though.

      I actually love silver. I just went through the new car purchase thing too but unfortunately no silver subaru foresters were available and I couldn’t wait 6 weeks (my jeep died on the way to the dealership! #truestory so I got a metallic charcoal gray and I’m ok with it but really still wish it was silver 🙂
