More about the Island Car


Here is a shot of the lizard that likes to hang out on our patio.



Well we really didn't give much detail on this process. We have been searching the paper for weeks prior to the move trying to decide what to do about buying a car down here. We also have read a number of horror story posts on line about different experiences with purchasing down here. So after making a few calls and looking at a few cars we decided to take the advice given more than once by several people. Toyota's make good island cars. The Toyota dealer here has a pretty good service department and they can get parts when it breaks down. Notice I said when not if. So we paid a little more than we would have at home, it is the islands, found a car Deb can drive and just bought it. One less ting on The Sequel to the list. We are now actively looking at apartments. We have up to six weeks here but if we find something we like we are renting on the spot. It wouldn't pay to milk it here and come up homeless in a few weeks.

Is there a Ford or Chevy dealer? Just curious what the situation is with the American car companies there.(I'm an engineer for Ford)
