We are the proud owners of a silver 2016 Audi A4!!! Anthony has been dreaming of an Audi since we saw James Bond driving one in Skyfall. Since 2005, Anthony had been driving a 2003 Kia Optima. I’m pretty sure it was one of the first years for the Optima. The car held up really well but it was definitely on it’s last leg. It needed thousands of dollars of work – we weren’t about to put that into a car that was falling apart! We ended up not even trying to sell it before we left New Jersey. The Saturday before we packed up, we drove the car down to a salvage yard, receiving $225 for it. We are almost positive it ended up in the car compactor, that not much was going to be salvaged!
For the past month, I’ve been driving my dad’s Smart car from his pharmacy to + fro work. My commute is only a few minutes, while Anthony has to drive on the highway every day. We both felt it was safer for him to drive the Honda, while I get whiplash from the Smart car (kidding!!). I’m already missing driving it but am so thankful for the smoother ride!
After a lot of back + forth between PNC Bank (whom we really wanted to go with but they do not service Oklahoma for auto loans), we ended up a week later working out a deal with BancFirst, making this our first big purchase as a married couple. That’s 12 years friends. We’ve waited so patiently to get the most perfect car. We’re happy!! (until that first car note happens!)
