Poor Man’s Mercedes

It was time. Time to trade in the old car for something new.
Charley was very concerned about me driving over the GWB everyday so we decided to invest in a safer, newer car.
Here is the milage on the Volvo when I pulled it into the dealership.
It was 13 years old and served us well.
We decided on….

Yes, it’s a Honda! My uncle who spent his life working as and engineer for IBM likes to call the Honda, “the poor man’s Mercedes”. We are also choosing to lease as I believe I can write part of the payments off as a business expense.
Just for fun here is the mileage when we picked up the Honda CR-V…

Yep…that’s 10 miles….
In a way I feel like I am driving a rental car…and I guess being that we are in a 36 month lease it is kind of like a rental car.
The good thing is it’s reliable and fun to drive….
oh, and safe…
