New (to me) Car

Our van started leaking oil in two places. Plus, there was something wrong with the battery.  We have put so much money into this car.  We had to replace the engine and transmission plus all the other stuff over the years.  I was so sick of putting money in this van.  It was a 98 Toyota Sienna with 148,000 miles.  We had it for 5 years.  We had to drive Mark's Civic to Las Vegas and back.  I was determined to look into getting a new van when we got back.  The day we got back I applied for a loan through Toyota of Redlands. They had a van I wanted in stock.  They called me and told me to bring in our van to trade it in.  I was shocked they would consider taking it.  They took our old van and gave us 2800 for it and financed me for the van I wanted. 
 I couldn't believe it.  I was so excited. 
This is the van at the dealer.

When I got home with our new van, we went for a ride.
The seats fold down into the floor.

Its a eight passenger.

It is so clean and beautiful


Now I want to go on a rode trip.  I wish we had this before we went to Vegas.

The interior of the van is tan.  With three kids it will get dirty so fast.
I bought these all-weather mats for all three rows.
