Im a college student (older one) working full time paying child support with two sons by me and two step daughters and I drive a 1997 Nissan Sentra with 240,000 miles.

I honestly have no idea, but if you are wealthy and have an older car you want to give away ill take it ;)

Mate, my trade in is a 2002 Buick Rendezvous that I bought 2nd hand in 2005 (so I have driven for 8 years) and has 102,000 miles (165,000 kms) on the clock.

The "new car" I am getting isn't a new, new car - it's 2nd hand (but new to me) - although I am getting a car allowance from work (thank you promotion!!) which helps.

Meh. All the American companies right now are really sucking except for Ford IMO. The line of quality separating them and your Asian companies like Kia and Hyundai are really thin right now. If you get a Korean car, you know you're getting a cheap car b/c of the price but a lot of the American cars are coasting on old glory.

Japanese cars are the way to go quite honestly. Honda, Toyota, Nissan- those things will last forever. Never buying American again after my mom's money pit of a Chrysler.

Chrysler and Cadillac are probably the worst purchases you can make. Overpriced junk and the (inevitable) repairs are ridiculous in price, especially Caddies. Dodge is terrible too but they actually try on the trucks, everything else, fuhgettaboutit. I'm kind of bitter at most American manufacturers for taking bail out money instead of actually getting their chit together after the market rejected their terrible products since the 70s.

Honda and Toyota are generally always solid, for true.

Mid Feb??? I thought he was supposed to be out 3-4 months after surgery in like August. Thought he'd be back early next month sometime.
