My New Ride...
 

Well, I did it. I bought a new car. After almost a year of salivating over a Mercedes C230 Kompressor Sport, I ended up buying another Jeep that I fell in love with. It was kind of bitersweet letting go of my silver Jeep that I've had for so long now...my new one is pretty much loaded; sunroof, leather and most of all, it has a Sirius radio so I don't miss a minute of my OutQ or The Beat! I'm so excited. It's black with gray interior and is lovely. All I have to do now is get my amp and subwoofer installed in this ride and I'll have the party machine back in action!

congrats on your new ride!!! straight pimpin'..hahah ;)

CONGRATS!!!...it's sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!:wavey: :thumbsup: ~

Very nice! Congrats on the new car!

What a weird coincidence... i just bought a 4x4 too! Mine is loaded with an 8-track and lots of plastic and vinyl. I definitely get a lot of looks driving this thing around the city. I think i look good in it... dare i say "studly"? :shocked: Your Jeep is very nice though.

Honey you would look "studly" in a VW beetle! ;) :wavey:

But I love it though...

You wouldn't get any looks driving that around in NC! :laugh:

It looks very nice. Good luck.

God damn I wsh I could afford something like that...I saw you mention the merc in the pop up before I clicked on thread and wanted to reach through screen and strangle you you lucky bastatrd :lol:

If you don't mind me asking what kind of a job do you have that lets you afford that?

Your Jeep is beautiful! I have a Jeep and I love it~ and I would very much consider getting another one if/when the day comes I can afford another car :nod:

CONGRATULATIONS!!
I just purchased my second JEEP in September. My first Grand Cherokee I got in 2001 and I totally loved it - it was a great car. After exploring all of my options, I decided that the only thing I wanted was...another Jeep!
The new body style is so defined and Jeep really went one step ahead and made many improvements both to the exterior and to the interior - it's such a luxurious vehicle. My new 2005 Limited Grand Cherokee is Light Kahki outside and two toned leather inside, has every bell & whistle imaginable and I even had the front dash upgraded with a premium wood package. Love it!!

And I hear ya about SIRIUS and "The Beat"...LOL

rbs

congrats
Love it!!!!

Very nice. :) Congrats and enjoy!

Congratulations! :woohoo:

OMG!!!!!!! You could crush my car with that.

They wanna ban these cars from the city of Amsterdam, cause they are too big, too dirty and too unsafe. Never heard anyhting so rediculous.

lol - it wasn't the affording of the benz that was the problem, it's their weird ass financing

btw, I'm a paralegal supervisor

the beat is awesome. so much better than XM.

WOHOO! I have hope then that one day I might be able to afford that ride! :laugh:

Congrats!
I'm glad you drive a car you love. If someone GAVE it to me I'd sell it immediately though.....to buy a cheaper one and spend the rest on music....

Congrats! It looks roomy - you'll help me move, right?

it is roomy - the only complaint I have is the lack of headroom on the driver's side - other than that the car is luxurious with awesome sound (especially once I get my sound system transferred) and great speed (it's a V8)...now how much is my damn tag and insurance gonna be? yuck.

Of course you will. I am very fortunate to have such a great career, even though I hate it some days. I'm very blessed to have bought a home, have a nice car and live comfortably having just turned 26. I've made a lot of accomplishments in a relatively short amount of time and you will too.

awww...that is sweet! I hope I do as well...

Glad life is going well for you. :nod:

Hot ride. You come by and pick me up. K?

k - I'll be the one blasting the radio.

Nice going!!:thumbsup: That looks like a hot ride.

The jeep is nice. :thumbsup: If I can possibly live without a truck, my next vehicle will be this puppy. I have really been lusting after this. Only I would get a dark green one. Pretty indulgent, but me likey.

me no likey...too boxey :shrug:

I'm guessing you'd be able to shove a lot in that box though.

Is there some innuendo in this statement ?

I'll be driving this until it falls apart and buy another one.:nod:

Here's my new ride...a bit smaller than that beautiful Jeep...droool ...
but I love my new ride..now I just need to convince hubby I need a Ipod (it has port for one) so I can cruise with all my tunes...lol....
Hey it gets 42 mpg...all leather interior and sunroof..

i think it's more like comparing schlongs (and the accommodated hole in the ozone layer)

Hmmmm - a green one :xoxo:

There is protest against SUV's, here's one link I could google. I remember this from a Dutch newsshow not long ago. They've got some interesting arguments.

Mari, who doesn't really miss that driver's license.

I actually travel a lot and have a beagle, a lab and a cat who travel with me, so I need the room. No, I don't cross rocky terrain often, and I'm not trying to show off my wealth or parade around in it. I work very hard and I bought this for myself to enjoy because I am in my car a lot. "stupidly fashionable" is such a retarded statement when you don't know me or how I live or why I even bought the car and I don't appreciate it. Freakin' ask me, don't just assume. But leave it to you to be pissy and bitch about something that someone is happy about. Why couldn't you have worded that post in a different way than to be such a smartass? :shrug:

I don't drive very much and have had thoughts of getting rid of my car and just using public transportation. I'd save a lot of money and I don't think I'd miss it. I guess that would make me a big nerd! :lol:

OH, thank you! :p I know I'm a big nerd.
That car of yours looks like a monstruous toy to me, I bet that's exactly what it is :cool:

Hm. I might have to post a picture of my crappy bike when I get a chance.

you know who's the worst? those assholes with the Hummers, i'll bet my life on none of them having a dick longer that 10cm.

I would really enjoy not having to have a car. I could walk to the store - it's about a half mile. It's a nice little jaunt. Unfortunately, my job involves driving driving and more driving. On average I spend 1-3 hours a day in my vehicle. I like to be up off the ground and I have to haul crap around sometimes. Thus the current truck. But damn, I want that G500.

When I was living in San Francisco, I did not have a car for 8 years. It was the most exilerating feeling ever. I walked, biked, taxied and used public transportation. SF really lends itself nicely to not having a car. Oh the freedom of it all.

But now I'm in LA and let me tell you all right here, right now, that LA people will drive across the street to get something. I moved to a very "urban" area of LA...and that's saying a lot. So when I moved here I didn't buy a car for 4-5 months and walked and biked. I still do that...but in LA, sometimes you just need to have a car. Public transportation here is pretty ****ty.
