My New Ride

This is my new ride I've been driving around town the last couple of months. Our GMC Acadia replaced the Honda. It took longer than we anticipated to finally get a new car because we got it used from an auction. We saved a lot of money but we had to be patient. Which meant I went without a car for most days for about three months or so after Kensie was born. Talk about cabin fever to the max. No car, stuck at home with a newborn.

Anyways, we wanted something with more leg room and cargo space. We also preferred something with a third row but that wasn't a huge SUV or minivan. We narrowed our search down to the Toyota 4Runner, Lincoln MKX, and the Acadia. My favorite things about the Acadia are the bucket seats, the third row, and the body style. Having the extra cargo space is great and it's so much easier getting Kensie in and out of the car.

I hadn't ever driven anything bigger than a small sedan so I had to adjust to driving this car. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be. But I'll be honest, I still struggle backing this thing up and parking in tight spaces.

So I guess it's pretty official now. My car screams mom. Hopefully people think 'Hot Mom.'
