Congrats. I had a car induced fit of mania when the only car I've ever owned had troubles a few summers ago. I felt like the "car" decision was somehow reflective of my whole life, and I simply could not decide what kind of "car" I was, needed, desired, etc. I also tend to be very analytical and rational and couldn't imagine getting a car because I liked it?
My car pulled through and I actually brought it to Italy! haha. Someday I will have to say goodbye and hopefully I'll be in a better mindset to get what I want. Congrats!
Thanks for the kind words and for sharing your experience, Brenna! I can totally understand what you went through, as I'm extremely analytical myself if you couldn't tell. ;) I think our American society tends to associate a lot of identity with the cars we drive (even if we don't consider ourselves a "car person") so it makes sense what you went through. Glad you landed on something you feel good about, that's amazing you took it to Italy!
Love this post, Morganne! I, too, am highly indecisive - maybe I should give "satisficing" a try. Congratulations on your new car, I'm sure you'll love it!
Congratulations!! Love the blue :) And I had never heard of "satisficing" - so good to learn that term!
It’s a good one! And can’t wait for you to see it 😊

Thank you, Lauren! I feel like I got a major glow up :)
