Funny story..
So she fell in love with the GMC Acadia as the family mobile. I agreed because it could tow (my only requirement for her car ). Therefore she decides she wants a color/option combo that was near impossible to find for some reason, with tow package.. So I found one in Portland Oregon yesterday and she decides she wants it. So then we decide to fly up there and buy it to drive home. Now we need to find a babysitter for our two kids over night, thank god my sister was in town visiting and buy tickets for us to fly out of SFO in 3 hours. We get to Portland and I realize I left my check book at home. DOH! Anyways, they allow me to put 25% of the down and drive the car home, wire the rest tomorrow.
We now embark in our near 10 hour drive back home leaving Portland around 8:00 p.m. Mind you I have to work the next day. So I decide to sleep first while she drives the state of Oregon. I slept maybe 30 minutes then drove from Yreka, CA to Walnut Creek, averaging 90 mph the entire way. Got home around 4:00 a.m. to sleep for 3 hours then wake up for work..
Anyways, the car is actually really cool. It's got decent power and drives really comfortably. Also it can tow 5,500 lbs which is about the same as the ML, so I'm happy about that. And now I get to drop the shitty ML. Anyways, here is a pic of her.
