Is this a blessing or a blunder?

Well, for those of you who know anything about my car situation you know that it's not a very healthy one. Yes I have one...well kind of. But recently the whole situation just got a little more twisted. But it has turned out to be a huge learning experience for me. WOW has it ever. Consequently I am feed up with my current car and all the....uh, adventures that has come with it. So i have been in search of a me car. I have been really into SUVs lately and I have been wanting one REALLY bad! It works nicely with my plans to go to the tundra of the USA, Rexburg, Idaho this winter. I have never technically shopped for cars and I have found it easier to find a plethora of SUVs on Ebay. Obviously the ones I can afford are a few years old and have at least 100,000 miles on them but I'll take it!

So yesterday I decided to give other types of cars a chance and look through them just for fun. There was a car I saw that had a pretty low price and only had a few hours left. I didn't want it but being caught up in the ebay fever I thought it would be fun to put a bid in knowing that it was worth about 5,000 more then what i put in and I would be out bid pretty quick. I entered my maximum bid and was off to work not thinking much about it. During my lunch I was curious to see how much it went for and yep, you guessed it! To my huge surprise I am now the *ahem* proud owner of a 2000 Chrysler Sebring Convertible!

What?!?! I don't even like convertibles! Don't get me wrong, they are nice to look at and when I was younger I would have DIED to get behind the wheel of one but now they scared the crap out of me. I keep thinking about driving it in the snow and it is no snow mobile. who knows what i am going to do with it. I have thought about reselling it on Ebay for more because I'm sure I could get it and then buy my SUV I've been dreaming about but as for right now I am blaming the bid on hunger and taking it day by day.
