Thanks ladies, for your tales of automotive hell. We've all got them!
mrs767er- I love the name of your car! I find it funny when people name their cars.
Sarah - But 5mph over a storm drain and POP goes the tire?? egh! What kind of puncture/tear could that have made??
Shelley - I used to have a Pontiac (96 Grand Am GT) and I don't think I'll get another Pontiac because the Grand Am only had about 120,000 miles or so on it and it was literally falling apart. I am a trader to my home state, but I don't think I want to buy American anymore...
At least until they start making them better!!
Kristie - The boyfriend wants me to get a BMW like him, which I have no objections to! Except that the ones that are in my price range have too many miles on them, so I'm looking at Hondas in the same price range that are newer and more gas efficient since I have a longer commute.
You're right though.. if you're going to buy a newer car, especially a BMW, you should be getting exactly what you want. So they are pulling back inventory? Have you looked in other states as well?
