My New Car

I love my new car.

I know it was so hard for Mom to give up her car. It means giving up so much independence even though she was only driving it very short distances. And the car was special to her, purchased brand new shortly after Lee died with money he left her. As she signed it over to me, I promised to love it too.

Its a 2009 Lexus 350 ES, four door sedan. It drives like a dinner knife through butter. It has cruise control and cherry wood and leather interior. I like riding with the sun roof open. Everything is automatic and keyless. It’s so luxurious.

It was time for me to graduate from my cute little Mazda zoom zoom college girl car to something a bit more worthy of the new me. I did love my little manual transmission zip around car. It was fun to drive but felt like a golf cart to passengers. It went terribly in the snow and rain. I almost blew off the road driving it to Denver once. It didn’t have cruise control and the only thing automatic were the windows.

I feel so honored to ride in such style and luxury.
