So, a week ago I bought a car. I've been here in Brisbane since February, and while I was able to get around fine on public transport, it was just driving me crazy. So I wanted to buy a car.
I wanted something cheap, but when I really started looking, anything cheap was going to require a decent amount of money invested into getting it road worthy and keeping it that way. So instead, I decided to go ahead and spend a little more on the car.
I also needed to think about what type of car I wanted to purchase. I wanted something that was road-trip worthy, and that would take me to places that I just couldn't get to. And, as a typical American, what do I buy? You guessed it boys and girls, I bought an SUV!
In fact, I bought a 1992 Holden Jackaroo. The thing holds 7 people including myself, its a 4x4, and is in great condition. Yeah, I'll be paying a little more on petrol at the pump, but its worth it to me.
I'll try to post some pictures once I get around to taking some.
