Well, after having given it a day, Pixie called me at work and said when we get home, we'll crunch the numbers to get you your new "toy"!!!
At home, I told her that we'd bypass the 4Runner; my reasoning being that my anal retentive ass doesn't need a truck just to drive around. I continued that she has the longer commute and our plan was always to get her a new car first and step her up to the Avalon or Lexus - befitting the queen that she is!
I told her that I'd still be on the lookout for a second-hand SUV for the light hauling and travel that we do, but for everyday use, I'd get my new car after we've got her car!!!
She stared at me, smiled, and said, "My Gawd, you grew up while I wasn't looking!"
Later, I got "pussy-whipped"!!!
