You may remember our little auto fiasco that started almost a month ago. We've been going without two cars since then and it's been good and bad. Good because it's one less thing to own, bad because I have the only vehicle which means Kaz can't do some of the necessary errands while I'm at work. I've been getting really used to having a housewife, and with me working and running errands after work, it just plain sucks.
So here is our new sweet ride! It's a 1988 Pontiac Bonneville. It's got a powerful 3.8L V6 engine, with fuel injection. This potent puppy gets 26mpg on the highway. It has the low miles of only 215,000 (yes that's right, only two hundred fifteen thousand). It includes a 4 speaker AM/FM radio, with power windows and locks. It even has air conditioning! The rims are from a Cadillac. The best part (beside the stuff I just listed) is the front bench seat. Yeah, you know you ride in style when you got bench seats.
When you click on the picture and see the larger view, you will notice the special custom paint job on the hood and roof. The kind of paint job that can only come from years of Utah sun. Some of you out there in the East don't know what you are missing!
We purchased this awesome machine from a friend at work. Now we finally have our dream car for the family we've always dreamed of. With this car, anything is possible.
If only I still had my 1989 Buick Skylark (a.k.a. The GhettoCruiser)...we could race.

Did she stab you after you posted that on the internets?
I think that it is time for you to take a second wife and make the Mormons proud.
