Decided on a new family car

You all may or may not remember me asking for new car suggestions a while back.
I ended up getting an '05 Sequoia. So far I'm enjoying it. When we brought the
car home Madison said "Mommy, did we steal this car?" Dh and I almost died
laughing. That's me, the hot wire Mama! I have talked to the girls about
not taking things that belong to others or w/o paying for them because that is
stealing, etc. So I guess it looked like stealing to her when I got the car
since I didn't hand over any cash for it. I can just imagine her going to
school and telling her teacher that we stole a car over the weekend!

Who makes the Sequoia?

FWIW, we recently bought a new family car, too. We got an '04 Volvo
V70 station wagon. We all love it, including the kids. We bought it
because of its reputation for safety, and the kids love knowing that
they're being driven around in the safest car. I get a kick out of
asking them questions like, "If you could have a Rolls Royce or a
Volvo, which would you choose?", and hearing them answer, "Volvo!"

I'm pretty sure it's Toyota.

Thank you. I think they look nice for being an SUV.

LOL! That's cute. Congrats on your new car Seth. My parents used to have a
Volvo station wagon. They do have a good safety record.

Thanks. This week, the kids had a school assignment to list three
things they're thankful for and why. One of my daughter's items was
that she's thankful for her Volvo because it's a safe car.

Until we bought the new Volvo, neither my wife nor I had ever owned
anything but a Japanese brand car. They certainly are great cars. My
wife still drives her Nissan. It's 8 years old, and it still drives
like it's brand new.

I'm sure Mariel's teacher got a kick out of that!
