New Saying

When we bought the Camry Jon knowingly chose a car with less horsepower in trade for better financing and gas mileage. This week we have had chances to see is we made a good decision. Our trip to Pacific Grove entailed going over Pacheco Pass and the new car did well. Then on Thanksgiving day we drove to Sonora and on up the back road almost to Twain Harte and once again the car did fine.
We have a new saying now when Jon doubts his choice," Cash in the bank". That brings a smile. Sometimes less is more and in this case that is true. Yes, the Avalon rode a little better and was a little classier but you can't take that to the bank.
Jon says that having an Avalon was, in some ways, a pride issue and as my grandsons have heard on more than one occasion, King Solomon said' Pride goes before a fall.'
So this new car has a double purpose, saving money and saving face.
