New 2008 Ford Escape

August 7, 2008
Good evening my invited and casual reader,
I think the smile on my wife Karen's face speaks volumes. I bought her a new 2008 Ford Escape from Town and Country Ford in Bessemer, Al last Saturday. She even got to drive it home and it is now almost a week later and I have yet driven it. I drove a demonstrator about 2 weeks ago and loved it. Karen had seen one just like this on our last trip to Mobile, Al and loved the little smaller SUV than a Ford Explorer.
She has not had a new car since she bought her 1991 Honda Civic and I could never talk her out of it. We still have it and it is a great car, a 4 door, 4 cyclinder with 103,000 miles and gets 35 mpg, and we have not decided what to do yet. It may make a high school or college student a great economical car to drive to school and we figured we could get more selling it than trading or just about giving to the dealer.
I'll take a pix of the Civic and post it later with it's story. Enjoy Karen's new adventure as she is extactic about her new car. Rejoice dear heart....
