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.
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.
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
Question: If you could have any COLOR car – what would it be?
Cheri @ Overactive Blogger says
I think I want something beautiful and blue for the next one! I love blue!
Blake says
Congrats on your new car! I drive a white one…being in the central valley any other color is just too hot!!
Leslie @ Life Begins @ 30? says
My car is black and I really love having a black car!
Jenn says
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?
Christine @ BookishlyB says
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 😉
Ashley @ Saving Money in your Twenties says
so exciting about your new car! I’ve always wanted a dark gray car… and I GOT IT! that was so exciting to me, haha
Kathryn says
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!
runeatrepeat says
Congratulations to you too! I like Jeeps!!
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
whoa – LOVE the color!!!
Tonya says
Gunmetal Gray. mmm baby! My car is silver n shiny n pretty but it’s not gunmetal. 🙂
Daphne says
I’m pretty basic with my car color. I’m in the market for a new car and I’ll be getting another black one. Congrats on your new wheels!
Ashley @ Kickashmom says
I always wanted a yellow car but as I grow I want one with three rows of seats!
Ashlee says
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!
Losing Lindy says
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.
Livi @ Eat, Pray, Work It Out says
Your fish looks amazing!
Melissa says
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 🙂
STUFT Mama says
Silver. 🙂 Hey, can I hitch a ride in your new car to the LB start line? Kidding. (Kind of.)
Jennifer says
Cute car, congrats! Any tips on buying a new car?? I am preparing to take that leap
Beks says
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.
Stacie says
red. its my fav color!
Amanda @ Slimplify Life says
Oh hot dayuuuum, the red is niiice!
Britt @ Fit Fit Britt Britt says
I would love either a deep red color or navy blue!
Natalie @ Never Serious Blog says
I love the prius!
Daisy @ Fit Wanderlust Runner says
Love your new car!! I’ve always wanted a prius 🙂 I would go for red also.
Coach Steve says
Sole Runner Red I love it! Congrats! Let’s talk soon.
Jessica says
Cute! White! I’m pretty car picky! I flew across the country to buy theverything car I have now! Totally worth it!
Jamie @ Wandering Portlander says
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.
Heather @ GirlGoesRunning says
Hey cool car!!! I just bought a new car last week! It’s a Nissan Versa Note and the colour is Metallic Peacock. 😀 It is very similar shaped to your car.
Leah R. says
My car looks almost exactly like that, it’s a red Toyota Matrix purchased last year. I love it!
Becky @ Ok, so here's the plan says
Pretty car! My car right now is bright blue and I like it a lot, but I saw one the other day that was a deep purple – SO pretty!
Hope you get your Garmin up and running soon!
Courtney @The TriGirl Chronicles says
Congrats on the new wheels! New car feeling is one of the best!
Kaelene @Unlocking Kiki says
My first car was a red car and all I wanted was a black car. My second car was a black car, I never want a black car again! Good on you for going car shopping alone!
Em F says
nice car!! I love red cars, but I really want an orange one. 🙂
Carrie (This Fit Chick) says
SO CUTE! wait, I love your sunglasses too- I want a pair! I am traditional, so I would go with black or white car!
Sally @ sweat out the small stuff says
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 🙂
katie @ running a ragnar says
