As a kid, I was obsessed with cars. I had one of those Power Wheels Barbie jeeps that I literally tried to drive everywhere. I promised myself that I’d get the same one once I got my driver’s license (thankfully my idea of what was cool changed by the time I was old enough to drive). When I first got an allowance, I told my parents I could buy the family a new car, since the commercial said it was only $399 a month. My mom then had to delicately explain that meant three hundred and ninety-nine dollars, not three dollars and ninety-nine cents. My five year old self was absolutely crushed. Fast forward a few years and my dad announces that we’re getting a new family car. To say I was thrilled is an understatement. When we got to the dealership, I could barely keep from squealing. Oddly enough, what I remember most about the dealership other than the scent of new cars is that they had this awesome water cooler and lollipops for us kids. Of course I was hoping my parents would buy something on the cooler side like a Ford Explorer, but we left that day with a Toyota Previa (hello 1996!) who we lovingly named Betty.
Lucky for us Millennials, Cars.com has made car shopping a lot easier (thank you internet). I love the idea that I can buy a car while wearing pjs, laying in bed and watching House of Cards.
