Mercury Sisters

On Tuesday of this past week I got myself some new wheels!
It's a 1996 Mercury Sable with 171,000 kms on it and it was kept in good condition. My amazing neighbour Tim found this for me from a friend of his... and he got it for a steal of a deal!

I got my car on Tuesday and Ev got a new car on Wednesday. And guess what - she bought a Mercury, too!
She got a 1995 Mercury Mystique with only 62,000 kms on it!! It was owned by an old lady who kept it in her garage - and obviously didn't drive it very much. The car is immaculate! Her mechanic was amazed when he saw what great shape it was in - he doesn't think that she ever drove the car in the winter! My car is kind of old man style so I named him Gordon and Ev's car is more of an old lady car so she named her's Edith. But don't be fooled by their appearance. . . these cars have lots of power - they've both got V6 engines and attitudes to match!

Yea, Yea! That's wonderful. I love their names! Lol Edith and Gordon. They look pretty nice for old geesers:) Actually they don't look like old geesers at all. They aren't showing their mileage:)
Love you gals,
Aunt Lorrie

Julez, Love your new car. I even got to see the car before you. I knew you would like it and come up with a cool name.
