The First and Only Car

The first car that I ever bought will defenatly be the car that I wish I would have never gotten rid of. The year was 2004. It was January and the roads were covered in snow and ice. I was on my way up to Lafayette to go out to eat with some friends. Well I got up there a little too early, so I was thinking of something I could do for a couple hours to kill some time. I am not much of a mall person, so I decided that I was going to go test drive some cars. I had no idea what I was about to do. I pulled in Mike Raisor Ford and got out of the car. A man came out to greet me and see if there was anything he could do for me. I told him that I was just looking around and I would let him know if I needed anything I needed. I walked up and down the rows of cars for a while and then I came to what I thought had to be one of the best looking cars on the lot. I don’t believe in love at first sight, but I fell in love with that car the second I seen it. It was a 2004 Mustang GT. It was a two-tone color of blue and purple, five speed. After I looked the car up and down for a few minutes, I casually walked up to the man that approached me a short while ago. He smiled and greeted me again as I asked him if I could drive that car. He went to the back to grab the keys and a temporary license plate for the car. He came back and we were on our way. I drove the car around town for a while and then we headed back to the dealership. The whole time we were going back he was of coarse telling me what a great deal he could get me on that car. By time we got back to the dealership we had already made a verbal agreement that if the loan went through we had a deal. The loan did go through and I went and picked up my new car a few days later. Two years after I bought it I traded it in on another car. I don’t know why I made that decision, but I think I am going to regret it for a long time.
