How many Buicks does a guy really need? Look what I found...

We picked up Suzanne's Christmas present today.

Meet Ruby:

There was a bit of a mixup at the dealership, so we hung out for a couple hours while the leather protection, paint protection, and cathodic rust protection was installed. So, between that and stopping to get dog food on the way home, it was too dark to get a good photo of Max & Ruby side by side. By the time you are far enough away to get everyone in the picture, it's too far away for the flash to be effective...oh well, Max needs a bath first anyway.

Ruby's a 2006 Rainier CXL...Red Jewel Tintcoat (hence the name). Unfortunately, I didn't read the options very well as it seems to be missing a couple of things I was sure it was supposed to have. I had a 2-way command start installed that shows exhaust on the key fob when it has successfully started...nice feature when inside or when it is -40 outside. It had been in use by a dealer, so had a bit over 3500 km on her. We've got the better part of 100 km on her now...so far, she's a real gem.

Here's Max and Ruby:
