New Car!

[garnigal]

Derek got a new (to us) car as the Subaru we got when VV was on the way is on its last legs. He specifically wanted an EV, and after a week of test driving, he chose a 2021 Kia Niro. It was about $45K all in, and on day nine of ownership, he hit a deer. Fortunately it still operates fine, but it's not as pretty as it was last week.

She's headed to the body shop next week to get all pretty again, but it's such the story of our lives - get ahead a bit, and then WHAM.

I think 45K is a lot for anyone. We had to renew our mortgage, and used that wiggle room for the car.

Otherwise, we're all good. VV is 10, grade 5 and full of sass. Good sass fortunately. She makes me laugh at the snark.
