Yay for Paradise!!! :D My sister in-law was in a accident recently, they totaled out her Toyota Corolla, but luckily the money she got back she was able to pay towards the purchase of a new car, a Camry. You know I hear these Toyotas keep the valued REALLY well and now I believe it given what she got back which was basically exactly what she put into when she bought it about two years ago. |

Honda and Toyota are very good at keeping their value, but they initially cost more than american or korean cars. |

Congrats! My car's a used 1996 Subaru Legacy with a little over 151,000 miles on it. I've put about 16,000 miles on it since buying... but my last payment is this month! And I don't even have to pay it! :D It's going to need work soon though. New tires, windshield, rotors for the brakes, and the rear wiper blade needs to be fixed... so yeah. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ But still, congrats! |

I hate Toyota's, especially Yaris's, but they have good gas mileage and a car is a car. So, meh. |

That's what always happens when you pay your car off, everything and the kitchen sink goes out on it. Although *goes off to knock on wood* I haven't had too much trouble with my 2001 Mustang, haven't even hit 30k miles either :) |

I began my work yesterday as a consultant in financial security, and that will give me plenty of time to drive my new car :D I must go to Montreal tomorrow for a training and then next week I must go to Gaspé (small city on the gaspesian peninsula (Eastern Quebec) for a bi-annual meeting of my cabinet. If I have access to Internet during my trips, I will try to visit the forum as often as possible. |
