Weekend Plans- Car Shopping

I think it's finally time....

Finally time to sell my current trusty car and look into getting another one. 

I've had my current car ever since I was 17. She's been with me through high school, college and now in my new life of 'adulthood.'

{This is her, well not actually, but this is her twin :) }

Nothing major has happened with her {yet}. She's just 11 years old and has over 140K miles. I haven't had to put a ton of money into major repairs up until this point, but I'm afraid major repairs might be right around the corner.

So, I think it's time. Time to start prepping her to be sold and start the process of car shopping.

I haven't been car shopping since high school and honestly have no idea what I'm looking for. I also hate the process of researching. I just want someone else to do all the research and give me recommendations. Anyone up for hire? :)

So this weekend I'm planning on giving her a good washing inside and out and taking her to get appraised and possibly look at a few cars as well.

From the very limited amount of research I've done and my unrealistic dreams, here are a few vehicles that have caught my eye::

{Toyota 4Runner}


{Nissan Rogue}


{Acura MDX}


{Range Rover}
Just kidding! A girl can dream right?

Anyone out there have any tips or suggestions when looking for a car? If you do, they would be greatly appreciated :)

With Love,
