Our New to Us Van!






Yesterday we got a new to us van and I am soo in love with it! It is a 2005 Saturn Relay 3! It is my dream car and has features that I never thought we would have in a car. We had to drive almost an hour away to get the van but it was such a great deal we couldn't pass it up! Here are the features our new to us van has!

*Dual power sliding doors
*leather seats w/ Cloth in the middle(the part where you bum is)
*storage bins in the cargo area
*dvd player
*onstar-though we probably wont subscribe
*6 disc CD changer
*Reverse parking sensor
*overhead console
*driver side power seat
*power windows(woohooo windows that roll down-our last van our windows broke and wouldn't roll down)
*wood trim interior
*steering wheel controls
*I am sure I am missing some but oh well

I know to some these may not seem like a big deal but due to our family size and money reasons we never thought we would have a car with things like this, and we were ok with that it was a choice we made. We were shocked when we saw the ad for this van, it felt too good to be true but it wasn't. We got it and now I have my dream van and I am so excited!

I do have an interesting story about our van already, it needs to be fixed already! The sales associate had someone take it across the street to have it washed,(the used lot is on the other side of the highway from the new sales lot and the due to remodeling the only carwash is on the new sales lot) and on the way back as the driver was going under the overpass someone decided to throw something off and of course it hit our windshield, argh! So now we have a big crack that I will take in hopefully today for them to fix! Why would your throw something off the overpass? I just don't get the thrill in it, luckily no one was in the passenger seat and no one was hurt!

Casey,
Congrats on your new van! Wow, how wonderful. It definitely sounds like it has all the bells and whistles to me! How many miles does it have? We will have to start looking to get a different car for me - I drive an Explorer Sport and my work is 45 mins away from our apt so gas is ridiculous! We are thinking about a Honda Civic Sedan, we will see I guess. Again congrats! You guys will love it!
