Fri, 24 Jul 2009 13:06:42 GMT anna728 http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2058458.aspx I am finally settling with the insurance over my auto accident. My decision was not to sue the insurance, but to deal with them directly. If my injuries were more extensive I would have though. Now comes the question of how to use the money. I need a different car. The one I have been driving is slowly falling apart. I can sell this car for $500 and I do believe that is what I will do. Cash for Clunkers is something that I had considered because it will give a $3500 incentive for my car toward the purchase of a new more fuel efficient car. The problem with purchasing a new car is that I would then have to make a loan payment every month. It wouldn't be a problem if we had 2 incomes. I am the only one working at the time. Yes, it would improve my credit if I could get a loan and pay it off. But, we do have pay other bills and buy food too! So, now comes the hard part of searching for a vehicle that will be road worthy, not fall apart in a couple of months, and won't leave me penniless. What do you think? Any suggestions on what type of vehicle would be worth buying?

I'm driving my BF nuts because I take weeks and weeks to make a decision on a vehicle. When I bought my car after my Mom died, it took me three months to decide on the car I bought. I am actually driving myself nuts looking for a car (LOL) I've been looking for the past 6 months and can't seem to find the car that is just right for me. I am considering a Ford Focus Hatch Back right now, as I need a station wagon type car and don't want a SUV or a van. How long does it take for you to decide on the car that is right for you? How long did you need to shop for the car? Sun, 05 Oct 2008 14:26:39 GMT Loverbear http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1555571.aspx I love shopping for clothes. If I had enough money I swear I would go clothing shopping everyday LOL. Now for the type of shopping that I hate, food shopping. I find it sooooo boring LOL. What about you? What types of shopping do you love & hate? Tue, 10 Jun 2008 20:06:08 GMT photographygirl73 http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1192972.aspx Hello all I am in the market for a new car, truck, SUV, etc., but there seem to be so many out there and I'm just not sure what I want. I currently have a crew cab pick up truck, but I don't like it. It's not that I don't like having a truck, because I do. I just don't like this truck (Ford F150.) I have another truck that I could use as a work truck, so I am not limited to trucks. If you could buy a vehicle up to around $85,000.00 US, what would you buy, and why? I don't care if it's pre-owned, just give me your opinions. Thanks. I'm just doing a little exploring here. I'm wondering what's out there.

Tue, 05 Jun 2007 15:12:17 GMT lpetges http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/506338.aspx Our Chrysler Voyager died last week so now we are in the market for another family car. We have 4 kids, so for the last 20 years our family car has been a minivan. Two of our kids have grown and moved out, and the other two will be gone in the next two years, so a minivan isn't needed anymore. That's the problem we're looking at now. It's been so long that we've paid any attention to the midsized car market, we have no idea what we even want. We're looking for used... in the $15,000 neighborhood. What would you recommend, and why? Wed, 27 Dec 2006 02:43:22 GMT ParaTed2k http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/981855.aspx How long did the actual process of you goin out to buy a new car take you? Did you get a loan from someplace other then the car dealership? I am just wondering. As most on my friend list know we are hoping to get a new car this spring time frame. So wanted to hear your experiences on finding a new car. Wed, 11 Apr 2007 13:42:24 GMT Penguinsangel http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/767373.aspx I am in the market for a car, and I don't know if buying from a car dealership is better than buying from a private sale. I don't want payments, so I am going to buy outright, but I don't know which is better. Any help will be greatly apprecitated. thank you Tue, 13 Feb 2007 14:29:09 GMT pudgles
