I love getting a new car! I like having a dependable vehicle because I live in the desert and if your vehicle breaks down driving out here, you could spend a HOT few hours waiting for help on the side of the road!!

I was thinking of all the cars I have owned, since in the past I was known to trade quite often. I have had a Lexus, a Toyota, a Mazda, a Jeep, a Ford, a Chevrolet, a Lincoln, a Pontiac and a couple of others. I have been with my current (Lexus) one for about 8 years now and it now has 112,000 miles on it! I know it is time to trade again, but I don't think I will ever find another one that I "trust" not to break down!! I hope that makes sense.

Enjoy that new car OP!!

I hope you enjoy your new car! I hope it continues to be a real gem.

I doubt that most meant any harm and I have a feeling that Yuban recognizes that. She's smart. Smiley Happy

I think that making sure very quickly that everything is ok with the car is due diligence, as you have a very limited window in case you need to break the contract.

I'm on my last car, but I remember the absolute thrill of getting a new car. Have fun!

Last car? Chicken don't talk like that!

I'm not going to say what I paid for my car, but it was more than double than where I found it in the "Used" section on the website.

More like three or four times as much. I recently bought a 2010 Corolla with 20,000 miles and paid $12,000 after some finagling.

Congrats new car owner! It's about time. Go for a drive and have some fun. Make it a short drive with these gas prices. LOL
