I Need A New Car
I have a 2001 Honda Accord with 140 thousand miles on it. The car is running good but I do a lot of highway driving and I have been thinking about buying a new car. Part of the reason for getting another car is that I just want a new car but the other reason is that my sister is a single mom who put her daughter through college and with all of those student loan bills, she can't afford anything other than the BAB (Big Ass Bus). So, I said self, you should buy a new car and give your sister the old car, at least she'll have some way of getting around other than the BAB. Here's the problem, It has been nearly (10) years since I have thought about buying a car. I want an SUV with a sun roof, leather, you know the works but I don't want to spend more than 25 thousand dollars. I have been online reading the reviews on cars, I have asked friends, neighbors, coworkers, and even my ex-husband (who was really too busy with his 25 year old girlfriend to give me advice but I wasn't too busy to wait with him all day when he had to have a biopsy and had no one to call but me; but I digress). Everybody has put their two cents in and I still can't make a decision, in fact, I'm more confused. Honda's are familiar to me. I have had (3) new cars all Honda Accords but I wanted to try something different. I wanted to move out of my comfort zone. Am I trippin? Why can't I just make a decision? I am now down to the Honda CRV or the GMC Terrain, or the Buick LaSabre (I know that is not an SUV), or the Volkswagon, or the Hundai Santa Fe, or god knows what else. The more I look, the more advice I get, the more confused I am. I just want style, reliability, good gas mileage and great consumer reviews. HELP-------------------What do you think?
