I just had my third baby boy and need to purchase a new car seat. I think I want to get the Britax from target because of the side impact feature. I’m just wondering how other parents feel about it.
Thanks in advance.
I am looking to buy a new car and have narrowed it down to specific cars. I just want your opinions on what you think! Both are around the same price OTD and have a clean title. I am a college student, only working part time, so I won’t be able to afford anything more extravagant than what I have listed below.
1. Mazda Mazda 3 Sedan
Color: Blue
Year: 2005
Miles: about 60k
Interior: Black Leather (no seat heaters)
This is the touring edition with the 2.3 engine, larger rims, pretty new tires, 6 disc in dash CD player, fog lights, leather wrapped steering wheel.
I love the inside of this car, I also like the larger engine (I drive quite a few huge hills every day on my commute) I am not a huge fan of driving a bright blue car but the color is growing on me, and it seems like EVERY girl drives a Mazda 3, I don’t want to be just another girl in a Mazda. I am also worried about the age of the car.
2. Nissan Versa S Hatchback
Color: White
Year: 2009
Miles: about 20k
Interior: Beige Microfiber
This is pretty much the base model with the exception of the 1.8 engine and CD player. Tires with hubcaps, no center console/armrest. I LOVE the way this car looks on the outside, it’s different and unusual and really cute! I also like that it is a newer car and has a factory warranty on it. The one thing I would change is that it’s lacking storage space. I also would buy new rims and tint the windows.
What are your thoughts? Mostly the year is making me hesitant on the Mazda, and the lack of storage is making me hesitant on the Versa.
I bought a new car a couple of months back. The interiors of the car is light ivory color. The other day my friend wore a brand new dress and came with me in the car. Her dress was pink in color. After we got down I noticed that the pink dress left some fabric stains on the car seat. And now the seat is pink in color. I have no idea what to do. Can anyone suggest anything on this please.
Thank you.
I am going to be getting my son a new car seat because he no longer fits in his old one. The new one is forward facing. In the old car seat, we have a bar that has rattles and a light up musical frog that my son loves to play with. Anyone have any ideas for an awesome car seat toy? I’m looking for the best one out there, one that I haven’t seen on my google searches. Thank you!!
My son weighs 19 lbs and I’m realizing that I’m going to have to buy a new car seat. Is the weight limit usually 25 on the infant car seats? Which one did you buy?
basically cute seat covers mostly interior things, dash covers, stuff like that for a 17 year old girl. i herd of LV (louis vuitton)dashcovers, and steering wheels but im not planning on keeping this car but a few months anyway. I just want it to look nice in the process. any ideas?
details to help you:
its a silver coupe and my favorite color is orange
im not wanting it cluttered just cute for the time being
bodykits do not look good on a mustang period so please do not give advice on those, if i had an eclipse i would definatly get one but not on a mustang
exterior things such as fog lights, halo headlights, all that is what im going to do with my new car in february just in time for my 18th b-day (:
so right now i want to keep it simple but at the same time really cute
For my sisters’ Senior year, I asked that they come up with 5k by the end of summer & they came up with 8k for me to sign for a new car for them. Their trade is worth 4500 & with all that as a down payment, these are the cars they have narrowed it down to: A 2010 VW Tiguan that will cost them like 3 a month but it’s LOADED! Bike rack, heated seats & steering wheel, u name it, plus their oil changes, inspection & emissions would be free for the life of the car. A 2010 Mazda3 grand touring 5 door that will cost them like 6 a month & I know that’s not all-wheel or 4 wheel like I wanted them to have but my fiance has one that’s a couple years older & it goes great in snow so I guess I’m okay with that. There’s a 2010 Dodge Nitro we looked at before that will be 6 a month (actually less cuz we didn’t calculate their trade in when we looked). Another we looked at was a new Subaru WRX-STI that’s all-wheel, loaded & would be about 0/month. There was also a Mercedes 2009 M-Class we found that was a demo for a salesman & only has 15k miles, it’s all-wheel & loaded, even heated seats & steering wheel & I can get 0% financing on it, the payments will be slightly higher (3 a month) but I kinda saw their eyes light up when we looked at that. Plus with the payment split in half & that being the only bill they would have other than car insurance. (Dad pays cell bill) They still want to look at a new Pathfinder cuz they love mine but I think I might get jealous if they had a newer one than me, lol. And of course, they both are REALLY trying to talk me into the Dodge Challenger SRT-8 that would cost 0/month that we test drove just for fun but, now they want it. I know they could afford to split the payment on it & my father & I are covering the first 12 months of insurance. All have full warranties until the loan would be paid off. I’m a lil worried about the Challenger cuz I don’t want them to wreck in the snow. (We live in PA) What do you guys think?
I bought a new 2007 Ford Escape about 6 months ago, and it only has 8000 miles on it. After a recent roll over, due to ice, my vehicle has been totaled by the insurance company.
It was a 2 wheel drive XLT, V6 engine. With other features like leather seats, sunroof, cargo privacy cover, and upgraded radio/sound system.
I know a new car loses value after driving off the dealership lot, and that the insurance company is most likely going to give me a check based on the depreciated value of the SUV.
State Farm Insurance uses NADA retail value books, but does anyone have any other idea of how much money I should be expecting?
Hi, I am looking to purchase a mid-sized car (an Accord or Camry). I want to get the best value for my money and am not sure if it’s better to purchase a new car or a used one? By looking locally, I have found two used cars that I may be interested in through dealers:
2003 Honda Accord LX with 73,358 miles and a Powertrain Warranty (not sure what that covers?) until 2010 or 100,000 miles (whichever comes first) LIST PRICE: ,995
2002 Toyota Camry LE with 69,000 miles (actually think it was a little more than 69k for miles) LIST PRICE: ,750. I’m not sure what the warranty is on this car. I noticed this car had some scratches on the passenger dash board, key area too, and some discoloration around the drivers side seat belt wall unit. The gas cover also seemed VERY hard to open I didn’t force it as I didn’t want to break it (I’m sure they could fix before I bought).
Which car is the better deal? Are these good deals or am I better of to try to lease/buy new? Thanks!
One night i was drinking, and when i drink.. i smoke. I had a friend drive my truck and i ended up burning a deep, not wide hole in the passenger seat of my truck. I have covered it up with a blanket, but my husband is thinking of getting a new car for me, and him taking the truck.
Here lies the problem. my husband thinks ive quit!!! LOL. He will flip if he sees this burn hole. Its about as wide as a #2 pencil but a quarter inch deep into the seat. Is there anything i can do?? Don’t they make a product to patch holes?? Its not too bad, but he will spot it like a hawk and i will never live it down…
