I'm told the Altima has a nice resale value. Also told financing is easier due to this. Less risk to the lender. |

I would stay away from Ford unless you are buying a truck. Toyota if you can find a decent one.

Just found that interesting since so many were recommending the Focus earlier in this thread.

Anyway, the focus he wanted her to drive was terribad. But that was A LOT of years ago. I don't even remember the year that one was and they have underwent several changes since. Unfortunately I know nothing about focuses but maybe they're better now? And maybe they are solid cars, but the one she drove was EPIC cheap feeling. She ended up with a cheap terrible Malibu that was hilariously underpowered but she was good with it because it wasn't that focus. |

Well, when a Ford master mechanic tells me to stay away from a Ford Focus, I think I should probably listen.

Just to be clear, I basically don't have an opinion on focuses. I just stuffed my big ass in the back seat of one for a test drive.

One way flight should be pretty cheap. Might be able to convince lewdog to sell now if he he can push to get the Mustang.

I would offer to fly to the mustang and drive it to lew, catch a couple spring training games, then drive the Toyota home.
If it were me, sounds like an awesome trip. |

It really is a very pretty drive. Driving through Southwest Montana which is absolutely stunning. Then you can off-shoot to Zion, Bryce and the Grand Canyon on the way down as well. Southern Utah is spectacular in it's own right. Spring Training here is electric. But I ain't letting any of you assholes near my Mustang! |

Lew why are you waiting until summer to get the Mustang? The miles are going to happen if you drive it back.
Guru should be all over this. Reminds me of how super cheap I sold a car a while back to family since it's easier than listing it and dealing with buyers. A one way flight hardly cuts into getting a deal like this. |
