Entry: Cars Monday, July 31, 2006

It's that time again. Time to car shop......Ick! I went to two dealerships, it took up the entire day and I still didn't have a car when I left. Some people are ok with buying a car and not doing much negotiating. Not me, which probably explains why I don't have a new car yet! I have to make sure they are not going to make anything off of me. Well, ok they do have to cover their expenses for their time involved while working with me, but that's it!

The salesmen that I always avoid are the ones that have a plaque in their office for every month saying Salesman of The Month. What does that mean?? He's A-number-one at making you think you got a good deal? I don't know, but when I see that I run!

I have a friend who owns a KIA and loves it. I also like that they come with a 10 year or 100,000 mile warranty. I may drive a car up to 100,000 miles, but I'm not driving a car for 10 years! So, for me I'll be done with this car before the warranty is up. I like the Soronto's, my last car was silver so I want something a little more brighter, colorful, like white with tan interior. Here in Texas with summer days being at 100 degrees or more I wouldn't get black, but it sure does look nice.
