Finally there is someone talks about buying new vehicle with common sense! I bought 5 vehicles during the past 15 years ( 2 used and 3 new). They are all Japanese brands. I sold my last Civic EX coupe after 10 years ( only repair is passenger side window regulator. I would have kept it if it was not because my niece changed her mine.). My current 06 Sienna XLE and 2011 Subaru Outback 2.5i limited are still running great. I am going running them to ground this time. Buying the car you can afford, reliable and a little bit bigger if it is possible!
