LOL! I'm happy to hear that. I drive a Mazda 626, and its a pretty spiffy car, considering it was a hand-me-down. I'd be *really* unhappy to think my car came from the same place as a scary-unsafe-piece-of-crap Tarus (which I find to be driven by the worst drivers in the WORLD!) Given the choice over a Kia or a Hundayi and a Ford, I'd have to go with the K-car. I'm not a fan of American cars at all. My family had a Buick. The thing was the largest piece of crap ever.
The Boyfriend's parents just traded their '00 Maxima for a Caddilac CTS

They're such nouveau riche wannabees. They shoulda put that 35K on a Mercedes or a BMW or a Jag - those don't drop as severely in value as a regular old piece of GM crap
