So remember how a few days ago I was whining about how much I hate car salespeople... Well, I still hate them.

However, what happened was this: they phoned everyday for a week -- and everyday the price got lower and lower. Finally Neil said, "Yo Mr. Carsalesperson (cause this is really how Neil talks ;) -- this is my bottom line make it happen or NO DEAL..." And then they made it happen -- and well, that is how we got a new car.

Now we driving a Silver 2006 Ford Escape 4X4. Fun and environmentally unfriendly! Maybe when I get a contract we can look at the Hybrid.
