Now you see it…
Now you don’t (imagine an empty driveway…I’m too lazy to take a picture).
As you might recall, the Mr. got a wild hair and decided to buy two cars on Saturday.
When he drove the PT Cruiser home from the used car lot, he noticed a hitch in the engine. He took it back on Sunday, but the salesman, who didn’t want to lose the sale, asked if the car dealership could fix the car.
The Mr. agreed to take the car back in on Monday.
Well, Monday came, and the mechanics worked on it.
It was very clear that something was still wrong with the engine.
The salesman tried to entice the Mr. with another car…even trade…but the other cars weren’t up to the Mr.’s likings, so he declined.
The dealership refunded our money.
The Mr. came home without the car.
I don’t think I’ve ever owned a car for only two days, but I am glad that things worked out this way. The car already had 98,000 miles on it, and I would have hated for the transmission to die while out on the road. I know how kind Murphy’s Law can be.
Not.
The Mr. did tell the salesman that because the dealership had been so understanding, he would definitely look there for another car. So, if you’re a local and want the name of a good place to go, let me know!
Meanwhile, the fight for the Mazda will rage on.
Wanna place your bet on who’s going to come out on top?
Just so you know, Chicky has Amazon Lady thighs…very muscular because of all of her soccer…and she has been known to put Rooster in a headlock (or should I say leglock).
Rooster, on the other hand, is nearly six feet tall, and he could easily squish Chicky in one step.
This.
Could.
Get.
Interesting.
