They say when you have a new baby, you buy a new car.  I guess that is true, since we bought a new car yesterday!  It is my first new car.  For my whole life, the “newest” car I have owned has been about 5 years old, and averaging about 10 to 15 years old.  Yep, I buy beaters.  Well, no more, bought a 2006 Hyundai Elantra, in electric red.  It’s a very nice car.  I can’t believe the build quality of Hyundai’s now.  I remember when they first came to America, they were Korean Yugos.  (Is that really possible?)  Now, they are rated above every other car brand, except for Lexus.  Needless to say, they cost a bit less than Lexuses.  So, I am happy about that.
