I hear ya brother. My vehicle is killing me, but I can't seem to make myself be ready to take the plunge of a car payment, and the looking for a car, and the deciding on the car, and the haggling over the car (for which my sis-in-law will be in tow because I'd just say "Oh, it costs that? OK") and all of that.
I also see the point that you don't have a clue how the previous owner drove it, and seemingly good parts could be on the edge...with carfax you can find some things out, but not everything.
I don't know. I've also looked at the Honda Fit, which would have to be new, but I also know I will drive it until it dies, like I do every car.
Heh, when my last Honda died, I called my mechanic to find out the verdict. His office manager was like "Um, hang on, let me get Mark." It was like she was getting the doctor to deliver the news. Mark was like "Oh, man, I hate to tell you this (Shawnee) but it's bad..." He knew I loved that thing.
