Fond Farewell to Gracie.Yes, my 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4 x 4 was named Gracie. She was a pretty good car, she got the job done! She only broke down once, when we first bought her...though the check engine light was a frequent visitor. I kinda just ignored it knowing that when she died, I would get a new car! There was also the issue that she would not always start. Something in the ignition thing where you put the key in would lock...usually a few smacks with a trusty hammer would get it started! She got us through many a snow storms and off-road adventures. I just wanted more SPACE! So on Saturday, May 30, 2009 the fine people at Larry H. Miller Toyota took her off our hands! Goodbye to Gracie Lou Freebush (yep, named for Sandra Bullock in Miss Congeniality)
And Hello to ________________. Don't have a name yet, suggestions are WeLcOmE! Yes, I used to swear up and down that I would NEVER own a minivan. How wrong I was! I LOVE this thing! It seats 7 (Ry and B have their own captain seats), plenty on cargo room and just room and organizers for EVERYTHING!!!! I am soooooooooo in LOVE! Happy, happy, happy day for me! Oh and it drives as smooth as a car, parks as easy as a car and gas mileage...VERY GOOD!
I could not be happier! This is the first NEW car or our 9 year marriage (first one of TY's life)!!
We will see what he gets in a couple of years when it is time to say goodbye to Hondie. ;)

Congrats on the new car. I love it. We have been looking at minivans. That will be our next car, but not for a couple more years. We love the toyota and the honda minivans. Love the black. I just wanted to say thanks for the comment on our blog. My hubby especially appreciated it. I just don't think people get how hard science/medical classes are and how competetive it is. I may be emailing you this summer and asking some questions as we start our application process.
