As you get to buy a used one Judy...I have to go to a salvage yard to pick mine out...LOLOL

I would too if I had someone to fix them up for me! In NYC, if you have to park on the street, I think it's pointless to have a new car. The bumpers are scratched up very soon because everybody squeezes into parking spots. There's also how many times when you park in a lot and come out to find a scrape. a dent, a ding, etc.

I've always bought my cars the same way. I decide how much I can spend, buy the Consumers Car Book, find their Best Buys for that amount, and then go look for it. I
always drive a stick and my last 3 cars have been sports cars. I have a mechanic I really trust and have the car checked out by him before I buy it. It's a good system.

Lucky for me, both dh and ds are mechanically inclined, so they can handle most of the work... what they can't do or don't have time or tools for I call Trevor. So in this respect I'm in good hands.

It sounds like you're well taken care of, Tink!!!!

Ahhh! Good looking Trevor.

Sometimes life is real good.

Judy, NY just sounds so crowded. I wish you could move here....but then again...I wish I could move somewhere warmer....ah heck...follow me anyway.

You're on! Nice and warm, not crowded, dog-friendly, good people there, lots of squash, no thongs, except the shoes.

Sounds like Tahiti! Who else is coming?

You're just stuck on this Tahiti idea, aren't you? LOL

Tink, it sounds like you're getting a great deal! Watch out yard-salers!
