In the Mind of a New Car Owner

Buying a new car is an exciting accomplishment! You think about great gas mileage, superior technology, and a smoother, better looking ride. It’s what comes next that you don’t expect. Have you ever experienced any of these thoughts after buying a new car?

1. “Uh oh, all of these cars look really dangerous and everyone here is probably a bad driver… I better park my car really far away from everyone.” Next thing you know, you’re walking really far through the parking lot to get inside the mall or grocery store.

2. “Hmm, we are going to be out of toilet paper two days from now… better head to the store to get some right now.” Suddenly, the most mundane errands don’t seem so bad anymore with your new car!

3. You used to never volunteer to drive places, but now you can’t wait to show off your car to your friends and family!
