New Car

We bit the bullet today and bought a new car. The conclusion on the MPV is that there was a transmission issue and we'd need to replace it within 6 months. Having already replaced the tranny at 57k miles, I wasn't about to do it again at 98k. So bye-bye, good riddance and no more Mazdas.

So we got an 07 Nissan Pathfinder. It's a base model, but it's still got a fair amount of bells and whistles. Power everything, cd player, etc. No 4x4, but when do I ever go off-roading???

Once we negotiated the lease, our monthly payment is only $209. Special interest rate on the lease, rebate on the car and $500 back of invoice on it. Just gave them the MPV and we got credited $4500 for the downpayment.
