Hey.... stop picking on the mommy-mobile!! Sure, I miss my Durango, but this Buick has the smoothest ride. And you are right he did end up getting the better end of the deal, but I can use that as leverage sometime within the near future.

Yes I traded in the Subaru for a brand new Mazda 3 Speed.

I got it in cosmic blue. Was between that and silver but I thought why not go with the one that was a little different. IT is a pretty sweet car. Looks really nice and has a lot of power 260HP and 280FT LB
Bad part is that it is front wheel drive so that is a lot of power all going to two wheels. I am still getting used to it and how it handles. It is a lot different than the AWD Subaru I had. It is also a pretty ruff ride because it is sports suspension with 18" rims on it and low profile tires. But the thing hauls a$$ especially on the highway if you need to pass or speed up fast. Wow and the 6-speed is awesome.
The exhaust is a bit loud too. I think it is a good sound but I will have to learn what RPMs and speeds are best for long drives where you don't want to hear a loud exhaust note... Ha ha.. I just hope that I continue to love the car as the honeymoon wears off. Either way the Subaru was starting to make funk noises and act funny. I think the engine was fine but the suspension/drive train may have had issues and why put money into it when I could still trade it is for somewhat decent money and get a new car with a warranty on it...... I am keeping my fingers crossed. |

If you mean me? I already have... depending on your defenition of course. My truck isn't an "off-road vehicle", it's a heavy tow vehicle that has 4 wheel drive and a little more clearance.
It does need nicer rims and tires, but that's down the list aways when these tires need replacing. Need to get a shell on the back and a spray in bed liner first. |
