It was an exciting month for us because we started it in a BRAND NEW CAR!
If you know us, you know that we have been a one car family for many years. You also know that we have been patiently awaiting and saving our pennies for a TESLA Cybertruck. It has been such a labor of love to wait and save and hope. Alas with COVID and all the related shipping drama, the Cybertruck is now massively delayed and honestly, we just didn't want to wait any longer wo we started looking for an electric hybrid vehicle that would give us the benefit of an electric AND a hybrid motor. Last November we started the looking process and narrowed our sights on this beauty, the 2022 Chrysler Pacifica Electric Hybrid Minivan. Yep, its a mouthful.
The buying process has been way less than awesome. Long gone are the days when you can walk onto a lot, make a deal, and drive home with a new car. Now, the lots are empty and dealerships are selling vehicles in transit, with no firm date of delivery. There are no deals to be had, and you are lucky to find one you can reserve! Yep, not the best time to buy a vehicle, but we are determined to move to an electric option AND enjoy space and road tripping luxury before our babies fly the nest. They are growing up and we want to do some things!
After a horrible experience with a dealership in Scottsdale, we found another model on its way from a closer dealer. We put our 5k down and hunkered down for a 3 week wait......again. We got the call that it was here and we headed down to sign the papers.
This vehicle is pure technological and comfort luxury. Its AMAZING, and the buying process was so smooth. GRATEFUL.
The girls have their own Captain chair complete with full entertainment center with wifi, netflix, charging port, and remote. They also have their own air (truly a luxury out in AZ).
I have leather seats, a digital assistant that answers my phone and tells me all the things, and a driving experience to rival most. Its amazing, luxurious, and SO SO exciting for us.
Bob ran a special electric line and easily hooked up our charger. Since owning it we have not filled up on gas once. Really exciting for us.
We are truly so excited for the many adventures we will have in this new vehicle. The space for carrying all of us, camping gear, and equipment has opened up the world of adventures to us....and our dog. Grateful for our ability to wait, save, and splurge. Its so worth it!
