So after driving my Chrysler minivan for about 7 years a new day has dawned. Last week I took ownership of my "new" used set of wheels. In a matter of hours I rocketed my cool points off the chart from where I was. It is a 2005 Acura TSX. It is AWESOME! Best of all it gets great gas mileage (approx 34 on hwy). Since I've been putting on 800 miles per week, that should help. To give some perspective lets draw some comparisons: 7 years of no A/C - now full A/C with dual climate control and heated seats. 1 year of AM radio and sometimes FM - now AM/FM/XM 6disc CD. 1 year of drivers window that needed lots of help closing - now one word - moonroof. 185,000 miles on the van - 35,000 on the new car. Let's just say a much needed upgrade. Play your cards right and you could get a ride.

Welcome To to the HappyHaugen blog! Love the car and all the wonderful features. Now we hope to hear from you often.
Ooooooooooooooooo! That is really nice!! Heated seats in winter sounds fabulous.....
You are, offically, stylin'
STEEEEEEVE!! So good to hear from you!! And congrats on the new vehicle!!! It does look wonderful and I would LOVE heated seats!!!
Isn't driving an exciting experience now with all the new features?!?
So, are you planning on being a regular blogger now?
WHAT?!?!!?!
The minivan (read:man-van) is the ultimate ride for attractive young men! You'll have a hard time fitting all 6 hotties in the back of the TSX while clubbing downtown.
Seriously, though - the ride is schweet. QUITE an upgrade from the man-van - the extra oomph will help you merging in Madison against all the Chicago drivers.

I'm not sure that this blog can withstand the onslaught of testosterone and manliness. Not all in one day, anyway.
Because you have made yourselves public, I will make a Weather Pixie so that you can properly 'represent'.
WHOA!!!! 2 new bloggers in one day?!? The testosterone might be a nice balance. Where have you guys been?
Love the new weather pixies!!
