My wife inspired me to go on a diet. After three weeks I’ve lost 15 lbs. and 2 inches in my waist. Now all my pants are too big. If I didn’t have a belt, I would be looking like some of the kids I see at the mall that purposely wear their pants to show off their underwear.
I’m excited that my pants don’t fit because now I have to buy some new ones. It’s been a long time and my daughters think it’s great because I have to throw away my “old man pants” and get new ones. Even my Levi’s with holes have to go. Now I have new jeans that actually fit. Yes, I had to hem them and they did cost more, but they do look better. A lady at the airport asked my wife, “how did you get your husband to wear those jeans? I’ve been begging my husband to get a pair.”
I share this story because I think our new car diet is over. We’ve made do with vehicles that don’t fit us anymore. We have had to live lean, but we now have the opportunity to buy a car, truck or SUV with better quality, longer warranty and with interest rates lower than ever before. We can own a Chevy or Buick that is more stylish, more compatible, fits our changing life style, is more fuel efficient and more environmentally friendly. Our products like the new Chevy Cruze, Camaro, Equinox, Silverado HD and Buick Lacrosse and Regal are world class.
Yesterday, I had my first cookie in three weeks. It was so good, it was the best cookie I’ve ever tasted. I guarantee test driving a new car will feel just as good. My diet is over, shouldn’t your car diet be too?
