This is it, a 2008 Honda CR-V, Whistler Silver with a black interior! I drove it home from the dealer last night and to work this morning and I had the moonroof open both times. I love all of the controls and the backlights and the stereo system and the colors and the steering wheel and the displays and the moonroof and all of the airbags and other safety features and the fact that I own the title alone and that I got a good rate on a loan without having anyone co-sign and I pretty much just love everything about this car!
Right after the accident, everyone kept talking about my car being totaled and I thought that it was the worst thing that could happen. Now I'm glad that I have a new car that has never been through an accident like that. Even though it stressed me out all week trying to research every car I thought I might possibly like, I'm glad I did all the research and drove a few different kinds of cars because now I'm sure that I made a great choice for myself.
Thanks Mom for driving me to dealers, sitting in the backseat while I test drove cars, and listening to me talk about different cars for the last week; thanks Dad for going down to Lisle, helping me negotiate, and being willing to co-sign a loan with me if it would get me a lower rate; and thank you to both of you for telling me to stop second guessing myself. Thanks to everyone else for all the suggestions on what to look at and what to ignore.
I bought my new car last night!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Seriously, I'm really excited!)
