Mom's New Wheels

Photo to follow when I get one taken. Mom decided that she needed a run-around car during the non-winter part of the year. So, she took me down to the Toyota dealer and bought herself a 2005 Toyota Corolla CE. Very nice driving (when she lets me drive it), great 31-39 mpg, 4-door, sandstone beige. It really fits her style. I seldom see it around the home anymore...she's just off and running, trying to find ways to take it for a spin. I was proud of her determination to get it at the price that she chose. The dealer said it couldn't be done; funny how he came back within 2 minutes and tossed the deal her way. "Her way or the Highway". She got the deal for the price she wanted. I'm not that good in deals like that. Anyway, when she is home sometime, I'll try to catch a picture of the car. It is difficult to catch a moving vehicle...it is seldom in park.

Take care and photo to follow..........Dad



  1. Let's correct the story a bit...Dad wanted the extra car so he didn't have to drive the Corvette in bad weather. Therefore, I get to drive it in the good weather to save gas...instead of the Expedition. I do like it a lot...but I was NOT the motivation to get it initially!
