[QUOTE="WoodsRider, post: 167477, member: 16545"] [b]Re: opinion from detroit[/b] As someone who has never purchased a new vehicle I don't agree with this advice. Basically all new vehicles (except for maybe Hyundai and Kia) seem extremely plush when new. What matters is how long a vehicle lasts under normal wear and tear. The best advice I have ever been given is test drive [U]used[/U] vehicles of the same make and model you are looking at. Especially if you can find them in the range of 20K to 80K miles. This will give you an idea of how the vehicle will "feel" after a few years. Then look for used vehicles with less than 24K miles, particularly lease vehicles. The only new vehicle we ever had was a '92 Dodge Shadow Convertible that my wife bought before we were married. That car was nothing but a hole we kept throwing money into. At 80K, right after we just sank close to $1500 into it, it caught fire while my wife was driving to work one day. :eek: Luckily the insurance company gave us more money than that POS was worth. :cool: [/QUOTE]
