Best Car Buying Experience in the Last 10 Years

Since Katharine starts working next week, and her new job is in an opposite direction from mine; I just got back from Subaru of Wakefield; I bought myself a 2008 Subaru Impreza Wagon 5Dr Automatic.

I feel the need to tell everyone that it was the BEST car buying experience I've had in 10 years if not EVER. I even made a point to stop by the owner's office, where they happened to be holding a manager's meeting, to tell them all of my most positive of experiences.

I told them what I wanted, they didn't do a lot of bickering, I didn't do a lot of bickering, I got a fair price, and I don't have a headache; which to me is probably the best part of the whole deal. I orginally was going to get a used car until I realized it would be the same price or cheaper to get a new one with the special interest rate they were offering on the new cars. That, and the fact that the new car has the full bumper to bumper warranty out the gate, secured my decision.

So I pick it up on Wednesday night and I officially turn the Jeep over to Katharine who says that the first thing she's going to do is to get it washed and "get all of your crap out of it". How about that?

Congratulations! Jeff

The new car sounds wonderful ( I happen to think Subarus' are very well made cars and good in bad terrain)

Congratulations Katharine!

Now you have a wonderful Jeep; something you have always liked; and you know the 1st owner well.

Enjoy, both of you!!

Much love,
Sarah ( your exhausted mother-in-law)
