Minivan World

Okay so we sold our Accord and then our Camry and now we are on to bigger and better things, right?..a minivan. I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would get a minivan, but honestly I really like it. The kids love it and there is a ton of room. So as for now I'm the minivan mom of two!!! Love it!!! Plus the best feature is that the sliding door closes on it own!! It's pretty funny how excited I get about wierd things! So, here is the deal, we went searching for a Minivan and found the perfect one at Tim Dahle Nissan. It is a 2001 Toyota Sienna with only 60,000 miles so we thought great, right in our price range and not too many miles. Well, felt great about it so we bought it and drove it home that night. Well the next day we turned it on and white smoke came out the tail pipe, so we took it to tunex to find that we had $3600.00 worth of repairs. We called Tim Dahle Nissan and of course they were punks, so we took it to the toyota dealer and to make a long story short we had to get it fixed for about $3400.00. We couldn't believe it...it was crazy that they could sell us a car with so many problems. Well, now it has been 3 weeks and we finally get to drive our new minivan! It's pretty cool! I will post pictures...

  1. Ouch! Bummer about the repairs. :( I'm glad you're enjoying your new van, though. Maybe you should make a trek in it to come visit me!
