Torn


In my last post i mentioned that we test drove a beautiful 2006 red saturn vue. I really liked it. Earlier in the month we test drove Subaru Outback, Subaru Forrester, Passat Wagon, and A Toyota Rav 4. I, of course, liked the passat a lot, but i like the Vue almost as much and it is a lot less, plus i can use that GM in the drive discount from my uncle. I am not crazy about adding to the SUV population on the roads, but it is a compact one so it does get better gas mileage than a lot of the others. They are coming out with a hybrid in 2007.

The dilemma
We don't need a car right now. We are going to need one when we have a child. TJ's truck is functioning, except for the air blower that chooses not to work on the express way. It isn't the nicest ride, but he doesn't mind it. The 2006 Saturn Vue is 0% interest for four years right now. They are only running this deal for the vues that are 2006 and on the lot They have one on the lot that fits what we want (except for leather seats, but i don't know if that is worth the cost). So, do we buy it now and begin making payments on it when we are both employed, even though we don't need it yet? OR do we wait until we need it, when only one of us is working and hope there is a deal at that time? I wish God would communicate with me and say "Lindsey you will have a baby on _____" Of course, He would fill in the blank. That would make the decision a little easier. Hmmmm . . .
