My Awesome New Car
I’ve finally gotten around to replacing the late, great Gracie. After spending most of my spare time over the last two weeks researching and test-driving used cars, I came to a decision yesterday afternoon and signed all the paperwork this morning.
I am now the happy owner of a bright red 1998 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LS. It has a sporty 3.1L v6 engine, CD player, cruise control, a big trunk, and more back-seat room than you’d expect in a coupe. It looks just like this, but with brighter paint that isn’t so badly oxidized and faded:
It has seventy thousand miles on it, and checks out just fine with my mechanic. Overall, it’s a nice step up from the old Grand Am. If I could change anything, I’d give it more than just the one cup holder and improve the view out the rear.
Most of all, I’m just very happy to have wheels again.
