Dagmar’s New Wheels

Look what Dagmar bought –

Yep. Her very own wheels.

A 2002 4 X 4 Ford Escape with leather interior, a sun roof, and a non-working 6 disc CD player (but Pedro’s working on that!).

But you know the feature I like best?

She paid for it herself. (Well – almost – as of her next paycheck it will be fully hers.)

And since she has been driving the family mini-van to and from the hospital – I will now have wheels again!

And she will have a reliable 4 wheel drive vehicle to get her through to ambulance calls night or day no matter what the weather.

Definitely a win-win.

The amazing thing is – it looks like her. Seriously. It fits her personality. If Dagmar was a car she would be metallic blue Ford Escape.

Everybody who knows Dagmar comments on it.

We were discussing this fact on the way home from church on Sunday when one of the kids asked me, “If you were a car, what kind of a car would you be?

An interesting question which yielded some very interesting answers.  I’m just glad that no one said a Model T or even worse – a horse and buggy.

I’m afraid I can’t answer that question for myself since I really don’t know much about cars. If they run, have gas in the tank and have lots of room for groceries – I’m happy.  A working radio and AC are icing on the cake.

But what about you readers? If you were a car – what kind of a car would you be?
