Decisions

 I/we have been thinking about buying a different vehicle.  I thought I wanted a Ford Bronco so that was what I was saving up for.   I drove one several times...I was just not in love with it.  I like the looks and the thought of one...but is that enough?

We have almost made a decision...we have owned two Buicks and we really like them.  I spent some time at a local car dealership and a young fellow there said he would like to sell a car.

It would have been a done deal if they had red...Cinnebar Red...instead they had Ocean Blue. 


It is not baby blue like this old Buick...it is a bit darker blue. 

We will see what the final decision is later today or tomorrow.

Nice! I like red too. Our Subaru is a nice blue but really right now it is dust colored and not very pretty.

I wanted to upgrade to one with nicer features.

Kudos for shopping and hopefully you find what you want!

Too many decisions. I’d say stay with what you like.

Good luck with your decision. I wonder, could they bring a vehicle in the color you want from another dealership?

I've wanted another red vehicle for several years, but seemed like the only colors on the lot were white, tan, grey or black. My last 2 vehicles have been kind of cream colored. So boring!! Good luck with whatever you choose.

I hope you find the vehicle you love. I opened my wallet in November to purchase a hybrid SUV. I like. It, but some of the features seem a bit clunky.

Maebeme, They have checked within a thousand miles and cannot find a red one for me :(

So exciting! Can they order you a red one?

Shirley said...

Nothing like a red vehicle! Sez me who currently has a grey car and a black truck....
Blue is second choice to red for me too.
Gotta love a Buick!

It's a difficult decision to buy a new vehicle. Things change very quickly.

I inherited my mother's Buick. 2005 with 23,000 miles. It's maroon. Perfect condition, cause, well it was driven just enough. Sorry you cannot find red.

Rita said...

I also like red cars the best. Doesn't sound like there are any around for you, though. :(

We have a little bright red Chevy Cruise that we bought used from a car rental agency. Red cars are fun.

How exciting! I don't like the color of my Tahoe but at the time I lived out in the country and it was the color of gravel dust! LOL! I can't wait to see what you end up with.

Dave is a hardcore Buick Man. Me.. I'm all for Ford, so I'd go with that Bronco! Lol. (Though I'd love to get my hands on a classic Bronco)

Buying a different vehicle is a big decision. It sounds like you're fairly certain of your choice. If only it were RED,. We're currently driving our son's "extra" pick up....a Ridgeline totally BLACK. I wish it were red. I'd even settle for white.

I too hope you find your red car, but for whatever you end up with, I know it will be just right. :-)
