I agree with tomwed about safety in a small car. I don't give it a thought really. As long as we both are comfortable. I want this to be the last car if it's a purchase so I am limited to Toyota, Hyundai, Honda. If its a lease anything will work.

I was supposed to see the dealer in N.J. while we were up there and blew it off, I wish I didn't. The problem would have been solved in an hour. All in all Mrs. Abby I would buy at home and pay the freight down here on the registration. Is Reedman's still in business up that way?

There is no way the last Fords I leased would give me good service for 10 years. Sorry but it's true.
About small cars and safety, I've check that out. You might be very surprised at the crash tests of some small cars. Not all are made alike and some hold up very well. On the other hand, my nephew and 2 of his friends were all killed in a large SUV rollover due to what would normally be an insignificant maneuver turning the wheel so as not to hit something in the road. I won't mention the manufacturer but there was a large payout to the families. We have had 2 other car accidents where deaths have occurred in either mine or my husband's families. Honestly, the size of the vehicle didn't matter. Only one of the 3 was a small car.

Anyway, here's the new and improved(?) Reedman's -

Here is a big Toyota dealer near me -

Toyota Dealer Glen Mills PA New & Used Cars for Sale near Wilmington PA - Team Toyota of Glen Mills

Buy your car from either place and I will NOTHING but drive it down to you. No problem. I'm sure I can beat the freight rate and hopefully it will get there in one piece.
