The best thing that could happen would be a nice little Sonata or Accord or Fit. I think the reason its a mission in Florida is many dealers try to add on about $900 as a fee. That doesn't work for me. Have they lost their minds man?
So here is my offer, I want the dealer to put up the entire amount of the car up for me or else I'll have to call Vito & Rocco if they are out of Coleman.

I was thinking NOTHING but the same. We have only bought Toyotas for the past 35 years and now I'm afraid to get anything else because they last with no problems beyond normal maintenance. We have saved a LOT of money on cars because of this. We have an older Highlander and it is probably our favorite car for the comfortable ride and versatility. The Honda Fit is a very roomy car for such a small vehicle. It also offers a great ride for a small car. We test drove one while in Florida last time. If I thought I could get away with it for long rides that would possibly be the car we would purchase for TV. I'm looking at Subarus too. Although again, I hate to veer away from Toyotas.
As far as the Ford Escape - here's all I know. My cousin bought a Honda CRV and then generously decided to give it to her niece who needed a vehicle at the time. She then went and bought a Ford Escape for herself. I bet she barely had the Ford for more than 2 years and went back and traded it in for another Honda CRV. She said there was no comparison. If you're leaning in that direction you might want to check that out. Unless Toyota has gotten better with their RAV-4, I haven't been happy with that over the years. Just not as good a ride as some of the other smaller SUVs on the market.
Sorry, K, I know too many words, but we're talking cars here. Important business......
