No matter what I do about my car situation I’ll save some money. So now I just have to be decisive (an issue for me) and make a choice.
Part of the problem is that Cari wanted a particular car. I saw it yesterday. It’s freakin’ sweat. Bigger than I need (until I buy the boat I plan to buy). Lots of room, dvd player, sweeet look … but kind of pricey.
No matter what I’m going to dump the camry. I need the room so the option is either keep the pathfinder, buy a new pathfinder, or upgrade to the armada. She really wanted the armada. And that’s the one I saw yesterday. Even though it’s pricey, buying that thing will pretty much cut my current car payment in half plus my insurance will be halved too. There’s a nice rebate, good finance rate, and the pathfinder has some equity that I can use.
This morning I asked for E’s input. She said that I could buy a car like GC’s for mommy. Oh crap! Last night one of the books she picked out was a children’s book I bought about death. Last night I asked her if she knew anyone that died. She said no. Maybe I’m missing something here. She obviously doesn’t get it yet. Should she? When she talked about buying a car for mommy this morning I knew she just doesn’t understand. That just makes me really sad 🙁
The pathfinder, Cari’s car, had been parked at her moms the past few days because her sister borrowed it. Her MIL said it was kind of nice having it parked there. So does that mean I should just keep the pathfinder? Should I just keep that one anyways???? Lower payments, decent space, sentimental value ….
