So now we will have back out and find something to replace the suv. Fun..Fun.. not really because Rob wants me get another SUV but I am kinda wanting a sedan. But he says I would not have my 4 wheel drive no more. Which he is right, but the winters are not to bad here. I do like idea of having 4 wheel drive but yet again, I want a car. Ugh, decisions...decisions! I think he should let me get what I want after all it would be mine. And I am the one would be driving most of the time.

I know it is going be hard finding something in our price range plus finding fairly low mileage on anything.

Wish us luck. I am not sure when we will find out if they are going total it or not. It will probably be by Friday or sometime next week.

Oh,well least I get drive around in a nice car until they decide what they are going do. LOL!

Jeanie said what I was going to say!!

mckayleesmom replied: Maybe you can find a pontiac Sunfire....I had one and Loved it......They usually sell cheap used with low miles because they don't really have a good resale value. I loved mine....I bought mine brand new in 2000 and a couple years later I would see them being sold for 3 grand

3xsthefun replied: I think long as the car is front wheel drive it would be ok. I've found a couple cars in our price range. I might check out some of the car dealerships tomorrow, and checking the papers.

I thought about Subaru Outback but I don't think we would find one same price as the Suzuki was booked for well lower. But might be able find another type of Subaru.

I'm not sure what Ford car you are talking about either? I seen a Ford Explorer but alot of them have lot of miles on them. I do like them but they are hard on gas I believe.

I will look at the Sunfire's and see what I can find.

I've been browsing Autotrader to see what I could find.

mammag replied: It's the Ford Territory but it looks like it's pricey too.

Josie83 replied: I hope you find one you like! xx

MM'sMama replied: Ouch I'm sorry but good luck car shopping I hope you get a really great deal thumb.gif.

Gammy2 replied: I just bought a new Suzuki Forenza (cheap price but i love it). They are about 13,000.00 and my payments are 237.00 a month. Also if i'm correct you live near Beckley, maybe. huh.gif Beckley Suzuki has been advertising the Forenzas and get a 2nd car free as long as it's under 5,000. Just a thought. But with a down payment your payments wouldn't be too bad. Good luck searching and i also have always had SUV's so this was a change for me. The trunk is very roomy. smile.gif

Jamielou replied: I hope you find what you like wink.gif I always hated car shopping because i always want what i cant afford then i get all down in the dumps.... Good lUck thumb.gif

EmilyandPhoebesMommy replied: I hate it too, good luck.

Sarah&Mackenzie replied: Most car companies are now offering that Employee discount so you could probablly get a really good deal. Good Luck!!!!

A&A'smommy replied: Well good luck with your decision!! I know what you mean about finding the "right" one I hope you get something you like!!

3xsthefun replied: Well I did find a Subaru Outback in our price range a 97 I think or maybe it was 96. Actually I found 3 in our price range.

Rob's dad also found a Suzuki Grand Vitara in our price range, and it was a 00'

We are still waiting hear from the insurance and see what they are going to do for sure. Hopefully we will know by sometime next week.

Also we don't want a car payment so we have find one around the price we will be getting from my Suzuki.
