Well I've done it again - bought another Jeep. But this time it was Melissa pushing me to do it! (what a good wife!)
It's a 99 Grand Cherokee Limited (we previously had a Laredo by the same year.) The people were originally asking $4200 but we Hamiltoned them down to $2800 thanks to Melissa. I was talking & negotiating with the husband. And then the wife comes out appalled that the husband was coming down so much in price. And she snapped and said she was firm on $3000. So Melissa stepped up and said "I wouldn't give more than $2800." The tension was high as the 2 women shot dagger-eyes at each other. Neither one backing down.
Finally the husband agreed. And we drove it home.
Then 2 days later I decided to list our Cherokee for sale around midnight, by noon the next day (today) I had it sold. It's been a busy day. So in 2012 alone, I've now owned 4 different vehicles.
Melissa is the hospital today. She is just starting her preceptorship in labor & delivery. It'll be a long day for her. But by the time she gets home, she'll be happy that I sold the Jeep. I'm sure that I'll get to see her money in the bank dance.

Jake would like me to inform you that buying so many vehicles is bad for your health.
ReplyDeletePtshh there is no evidence of such things. And if it were true, Jake is a carrier for this sickness as well! haha
