Impala SS

Impala SS

Tonight I sold the Impala… It’s sad to see her go, but exciting to see how much bigger my garage is now!!! 

I’m slowly learning that time is more valuable than money. When We bought the Malibu, I thought it was crazy how little they wanted to give me for the Impala as a trade in. I tried CarMax and thought they were too low as well. I tried ebay, and just got frustrated with people that weren’t serious about bidding. I tried a for sale sign in the window, but anyone that asked about the price just kept driving. So tonight, 9 months after buying the Malibu, I finally crawled back into Carmax and took the same that the Chevy dealer had offered me as a trade in — except that I didn’t save 300 in sales tax on the new car, I’ve been paying car insurance for the last 9 months, and I blew 100 on ebay adds. But again, I’ve got one less thing on my list of to-dos, a bigger garage, and I didn’t have to spend any more time or money on fixing the impala!!

Goodbye Priscilla. Your 5.7L LT1 will be missed.

Sam, the impala will be missed. I hope you didn’t sell the fake poop with it.

A moment of silence…
