We made a decision!! Yeah! We decided to go with the 2001 model. We looked it up on www.carfax.com and it had one owner and low milage no problems with it. We compared to some of the other ones we were thinking about and those were all rental cars for several years. People who rent cars do not take as good car of them as an owner. We did a 3 yr loan and it will be $210 a month.
Now... the wiggle room in the budget is gone.
So some short term goals:
1. Need new windows in the fall- have the money in savings
1. Get emergency fund/short-term savings back up to $10k
2. Pay extra on the car
Enjoy your savings!

Congrats! It's always great to have a new car. I'll be posting on saving when buying a new car in the next few weeks -- sorry it was a bit late for you -- but you probably got the best deal anyway! ;-)
