NEW CAR


Coby has been driving a car that has been passed down through 5 people. The origional owner, my dad, sister, brother-in-law, then Coby. It has about 250,000 miles on it, and just hasn't been cutting it lately. We knew we'd be getting something soon, but after I got stuck on the side of the road in 115 degree heat and it took a few phone calls before I found someone to come get me... it was time. Plus, Coby now gets to drive a car that has some decent air conditioning (even though we just paid to get his totally replaced last summer, it still wasn't very cold).

After quite a bit of research and test driving we had 2 that we were picking between. I think we liked the look of the other a bit better, but this will save us money in the long run which ended up being the deciding factor. (lets just say that after we bought the car, but my mom hadn't come back with it yet... we pulled into a parking lot and the car we didn't get was sitting there and Coby made us have a moment of silence for it. hahal) We found a great deal on a car in Utah and my mom happened to be up there helping my sister since she just had her baby. My brother-in-law and my mom went and drove it, got it checked out, and helped us out a ton so we could get our car. My mom was able to save us a trip and drove it down for us too. We love it and are so glad we got it. It really is a great car and we will definitely have lots of fun with it.
Thanks again Jeff and mom for all your help with getting the car!!!

2010 Honda CRV
Since it's been really dusty I haven't gotten it washed yet, so I stole a pic off the internet.
Add a roof rack and it's the same car.


I guess it rained a lot in Utah and the car got pretty dirty while it was there so as a gift the Jeppsen family made their mark. The handprints didn't last through the drive down, but my sister sent me these pictures. Even Crew put his handprint on... and Petyon went a little crazy putting hers around the whole car.
