Buy It?

 Had an interesting experience today. 

As I took my car to the dealership today to get an oil change at their shop. 

As my car decided a few days ago to give me the "Service Soon!" warning.

Which was a bit irritating because like...the sticker in my windshield said I still had a good 500 miles to go before I would need one but whatever.

I'd been hoping to wait until the end of the month to get my oil change done.

But I tend to get annoyed with notifications that constantly pop up and don't go away.

Hence making the time today to go get my oil changed. 

Which was fortuitous as on the drive over I got "Low windshield wiper fluid" notified as well. 

And they top that off for free. So yay for that timing! 

In any case.

Went to the dealership I bought my car from to get the oil changed because 'perks'

And while I was waiting for the oil to be changed. 

I received a text message. 

That basically said: "Hey! We see that you just brought in your car to get serviced! Your model of car is in high demand right now. And we'd love to buy your car! Text back Yes to get an estimate!"

O.o

o.O

What?

I mean I drove through the lot to get to the Mechanic aspect....the lot was filled with cars....

Granted I wasn't paying attention to the year each car was if they were new or pre-owned.

But like. 

What?

I mean I've only had my new car for a little over a year. 

So yes it's still in overall good condition. 

But I know that the value of cars depletes rather quickly once it's bought and taken off the lot.

So like....odds are high that they would not offer me enough money to even pay off what I still owe on my car. 

So unless they were offering me more than the current value of my car. Or like offering to let me switch my current payment plan to a new car or let me just get a new car right out?

Yah. Not likely.

More than likely it's just a way to make me spend more money because I'd have to get a 'new' car and said 'new' car may be more expensive than what I got my car for originally. 

So yah no.

Like thanks for being willing to buy my car. 

But also like No?

I'm not the sort of person to whimsically just switch out my cars at the first opportunity.

With bigger purchases I tend to use them until they break.

I'm currently planning to keep my new car for at least 20 years.

I mean I had the Tracker for 23 years before selling it.

I'm expecting to keep my current car for just as long if not longer. 

It's so random though.

It has me curious.

Like how high is demand actually? 

Are people really buying cars that quickly?  I didn't notice many people in the store looking at cars while I was sitting around waiting. And I assumed the couple other people I saw inside who weren't workers were people who too were waiting for their car to be finished with whatever they were doing. 

Regardless.

At least I got my oil changed!

And everything else looked good according to the dude I checked out with. So yay! Yay for doing well so far with my new car!

Until you next find these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the Day!
