Hail Damage Saves Us Big

Everyone knows hail and cars don't mix well, but for us hail turned out to be a great thing....

We have been considering trading in our Ford Focus for a while now. It's getting to the point where it will start costing us a lot of money in repairs to keep it running plus it's AWFUL in the snow (not a good thing when you live in Colorado).

Well, there was a terrible hail storm in Denver last week and several dealerships were having "Hail Sales." We stopped in just to see what we could get for a trade in and look what we found.....

It's a 2008 Suzuki Grand Vitra with only 6,700 miles on it!

Normally we would never be able to afford such a new car, but with the hail damage it was priced right in our budget. The hail dama
ge really isn't bad either - just some pitting on the hood.

We know this was the Lord's way of blessing us with a car that will be reliable and safe for our family. We are so grateful!

When we lived in Texas the same kinda thing happened. Only almost all the cars on the lot were completely totaled. Love the new car! (Love those unexpected blessings.)
