Wow - Who'd have thought that buying a new car could be so stressful?! Too many choices with silly optional extras, that I can't really afford. I wonder why I put myself through this extra stress!

Its not you its the dealers the more they stress you the most likely you will sign your own death sentence if they set it in front of you. They hate to see me coming, I tell them what I want, and what I'm going to pay. The last time they set me in a office for 5 hours, haggled me for hours when I said, "I'm trading you a 2009 F-350 Super Duty 4Wheel Drive w/80K for a 2008 mini truck you should be paying me! I'll pay you 9K and thats it." I finally traded it for a 2009 Ford Edge, sraight trade.

I have finally decided what I will do with regards to the optional extra's - Take none of them!! I will purchase a set of car mats, and that's it. Otherwise my 'great deal' car will become an expensive - "not such a good deal after all" - car!
Decision made - and stress has lifted. :D

Hehe - I got the car mats for free, and the 'Gap insurance' very cheap.
It's so shiny, and smells great!! Now I just need to work out how to use all the 'toys'.

You got to take it back, The steering wheel is on the wrong side:insane:... (This is where you say crazy American only there is it on the wrong side :spin:)

 

[cherryblossom]

:laughatyou: The steering wheel is definitely on the right side for me!!

....... and I won't be sending it across the Atlantic for you to borrow - so don't worry :lol:

:laughatyou: for you to borrow - so don't worry :lol:

:rolleyes: Lets put it nicely as possible... I drive 60MPH in 45 zones, and 90+ in 60 zones.. Speed demon I am. Not sure if it could handle lugging around 500+ pounds of tools, 80 feet of sewer cables w/ Machine, and my lead butt to matchh lead foot.. Besides trying to explain upon its return why it smells horrifice would be impossible except could say passenger couldnt handle the ride.

Lighter side The sewer cables stopped my car from getting stolen a few weeks back, would be thife was sitting in it about to drive off when his nose picked up the scent:vomit: He was out of car tears in his eyes about to :vomit: when I walked up got in car and left just smilling at him as he slowly turned 3 shades of green.

I drive 60MPH in 45 zones, and 90+ in 60 zones..

Why?

 

[alixipain]

99% of the time in a hurry. I dont get paid for my travel time even though I have to record it. My employer sucks unless your time is on a time card your not getting paid for it, even if you have 14 hours of accumallated travel time. My poor car is not made for lugging around 500 pounds of tools daily. Eventually I will do one of the two get a new job or my contractors licenses, where the car doesnt have to lug the tools!
