GIGI

aka "gas guzzler" is the newest member of our family. Last week we finally made the jump and bought this 4-runner and sold the Jetta. Love having more space and 4 wheel drive. Believe it or not, despite the fact that Gigi is way older than the Jetta, uses way more gas, and really just not as nice--I LOVE HER way more than the Jetta. Honestly we just never loved that car--hence the fact that it never received a family name. And saying goodbye was oh so easy. Even though Gigi is almost 15 years old she does have automatic locks and windows, a sunroof, amazing cd player (nicer than was in Jetta), and keyless entry. That pretty much covers the bases for me--the only thing I will miss in the Jetta is the heated seats. Good thing I don't live in UT anymore.

Hopefully we'll have another new member of the Weidner Family Transportation Vehicles(WFTV) very soon--this one for water and one of the main reasons we got Gigi.


By the way...why I am always doomed to have white cars?
