As you know from diligently reading every word of my blog, we got a car last fall. Not just any car....a Suburban.
This has presented many problems. Some of which are that parking in the city is redonkulous and gas prices are refronkulous.
Parking is always fun in NYC but when your car is the length of 2 cars it is a major pain in the arse. What makes it doubly fun is that in our neighborhood there are literally 3 streets that you can park on during the day without paying. And on Saturdays they cut out all of the Muni Meter parking on 2 Ave so that means that everyone coming to my hood for lunch is parking on those 3 streets. When you do get a spot you feel like you hit the lottery! But it is still worth having a car in the city. We love it even though we only use it on the weekends it is nice to know that if I want to go on a roadie I can.
Did you know that the muni meter in midtown is twice as expensive as in the Heights? And New Haven? Oy!!
The pros to this particular car are that there is so much space! We love the space and it is SO darn comfortable to ride in. We had been considering a Yukon before we decided on the Burban and I'm so glad we didn't get it because the Yukon's trunk is non existent!
Peace out.
And remember to watch General Conference this weekend....we are stoked!!
