Yeah.. and I haven't gotten her flowers, either. :-)
We have been talking about finding a Prius for my wife, as she's still driving a monstrous amount of miles until we move later this year. She has an '04 Lexus IS300; it has been a beautiful car in a lot of ways, with zero problems and lots of great features. Increasingly, though, we have been focused on becoming more frugal and the ~22 mpg the Lexus got (on premium, no less!) wasn't good enough. Also, it was about to turn over 100k miles and would require a timing belt, water pump and tires soon.
I was planning to put it on Craigslist this week, but decided to take it by Carmax and just see what they'd offer. Long story short, they gave me about what I thought it might bring on Craigslist, and I had my wife come and pick me up. Coincidentally, Carmax also has a 2007 Prius with low miles in a color my wife favors, at a decent price. Tomorrow I'm going to go see about what I hope will be our last car payment ever. My credit union is offering 1.99% rates on used cars 2007 and newer, which will at least make the prospect of a car loan slightly more palatable.
