qoe, have you considered a diesel (TDI) VW? I also live in the big snowy mitten and I drive a Jetta TDI station wagon. Diesel prices are a little painful at the moment, but if you do mostly highway miles and not much stop-and-go city driving then the diesel is still more economical (not to mention has lots of get-up-and-go). Either way some good snow tires will keep you from getting stuck. Happy shopping!
Most of my miles are city. I had a passat before my current car and I have to say it's been my favorite car ever!!! One of the things I wasn't crazy about in the Beetle was the lack of get up and go. But then, MG informed me that most cars weren't meant for the type of driving I do......do ya think that's an insult???
I know way more about BP, thyriods, palpatations, the inner ear, hemeroids, dermatitis, excema, spastic colons, hickeys and all that other crap plaguing all of you then I ever wanted to know. You girls have big problems!
Perhaps, but at least our head's are a normal size....... And.....we don't make grocery money by pole dancing...... Another thing......well, just you never mind about that other thing.......
I've had experience with the Prius, and I can tell you this. I want one. If I were a rich man, or even if I weren't a poor man, I would love to have one. It drives so very nice, and it is definitely nice. Good memories from driving that car. Want one.
Well QOE In a Locksmith Auto entry book they distinguish between Made in America and Marketed in America. Almost all autos are made everywhere most are assembled in a region close to orgin.
However my dream of a 48 Willies sitting next to a 57 Caddy in front of the Beverly Hillbillies truck were all originally made in America but probably the replacement parts were not.
I was made in America but a lot of what I now eat was not. Hmmmm.

My son has a prius and the only problem is battery life which is supposed to be around 4 years. I don't know how he did it but he got a longer warranty because when the battery needs to be replaced it costs hundreds of dollars. So ask about that when your shopping around.
LOL!
