Finally the day has come...I am able to afford a new vehicle and my own insurance. Today I purchased insurance from Progressive and tomorrow I shall go pick up my used new 2008 Ford Escape.
I have needed a new vehicle since 2011-2012 when my Taurus started acting up. I really didn't want to drive it that far just in fear that it would strand me somewhere or injure the passengers or whatever else could potentially happen.
Ben and his mom talked about possibly selling her vehicle and gave me a choice if I wanted to buy it from her or not. For the next two weeks we talked about it. I decided to go for it. She drew up paperwork and found out some information on how much to sell it to me. She came up with $8500 and I would pay her monthly. The perks are she works at a Ford dealership and I could have discounts if something were to happened to it or it needed some maintenance.
Last Saturday after my half day at work, me and my dad drove out to Puyallup for him to see if it was worth purchasing it from her or not. He drove it, looked at some of the important parts and he gave it the okay as well.
Tomorrow afternoon after the title is turned over to me I will have a vehicle I can trust driving around.
