New Car

We sold my husband's truck Wednesday evening, and yesterday he bought a car. We found the car online and bought it in Kentucky yesterday. It's a 1992 Saab 9000 Turbo, he loves it already. He probably won't be driving it anywhere other than to and from work, but it's perfect for what he needs it for. It should get at least 30mpg, it has a little get up and go, but not too much. Surprisingly it's body is really nice for a '92, it has no rust and the paint is still pretty glossy. He insisted on buying a car with a manual transmission, even though I can't drive one well at all (I usually kill it every five feet). I guess I don't ever need to drive it, I love my suv (and we can't fit four kids in the back). He drove it to work today, and said that it did great on all of the hills. Hopefully we have a keeper, and it doesn't give us any problems. I think we have decided to keep his motorcycle for now, he loves riding it on sunny days. So for now we have our gas guzzling Cadillac Escalade, his fuel efficient Honda 919 and his practical Saab 9000.
