What I didn't think I was doing today

Buying a new car. Since everything in the world costs significantly more this week than it did a year ago, we traded in my Pilot for a Honda CRV.

Our monthly payment is going down more than $100, and our gas usage should decrease significantly. The color is called Royal Blue Pearl, and it is brighter in person than in the photo. I like the color, and it is what they had available, but the name Red Tango Pearl made me smile.

Sweetheart is happy about the amount of room now available in the garage, and so am I. I did have to forego my steering wheel radio controls and my "way back" seating, but it rides nicely, and saving the money makes me smile.

I'm hoping the next car I purchase will be a hybrid.
