Shake that healthy butt!

I took the car I mentioned earlier out for a test drive today.  I really like it.  It’s a 5 speed and I am so excited, I have been driving an automatic for the last almost 4 years and I’ve missed driving a stick shift.

Last night, when I told the kidlet it was a 5 speed, he looks at me all dead serious like and said “Do you even know how to drive a 5 speed?”  Der.  I told him yes, that only 3 of many vehicles I have owned have been automatics.

So, back to the car.  The dealership is not far from my parents’ house and I took the car to their place to have my dad come on the test drive with me.  I wanted his opinion on it.  He was pretty impressed.  It’s in great shape, it has low miles and it runs really great.  Then, when I dropped him off my mom got in and we took it back to the dealer to pick up my car and get more information on it.

My mom, the kidlet and I went shopping after.  My mom couldn’t stop talking about the car :)   I wanted to come home and check on insurance on it and do some more research.  I have been googling all over the internet to research it and found out some really interesting information about this particular type of car that I didn’t know.

So, now I have to decide if I want a car payment and then go haggle with the guy :)   Those of you that are on my flickr friends list can see a picture of said vehicle if you wander over there :)

Dayum.  I can’t stop listening to it.  I am going to download it for bellydance practice, yowza.
