And I got a PT Cruiser for a rental. Nothing special about the PT Cruiser. It looks cool, but I am not impressed at all by it's performance or handling.
Just thought I'd share.
I am strongly leaning towards an Audi A4 or A6 for my next car. That will probably be in 2005.

When do yo think you'll be shopping for a new ride? I just paid mine off (one year ahead of schedule
). I want it to go another 2 years or 50,000 more miles before trading it in.
The wife has a Ford Explorer and it is a piece of shit.

Not yet, he just got it at the beginning of december.
The hemi is a new motor for dodge, might be worth giving it some time before buying.
He didn't have a choice as his chev got stolen and totaled.
That new Turbo Desiel does look sweeeeeet though.Cool

Well, actually the Hemi is not a new motor for Dodge.....they just brought it back. And back in the sixty's it was an awsome motor.
I like the dodge Desiel, they use a cummins motor.

Maybe. I change my mind on this like I change my underwear...every other week. Whatever I decide, my shopping experience will be a hell of a lot better than last time (my nuts were in a vice last time I bought a car).
