okay
well are you there
yes i'm here
okay well i just bought a new car that's why i checked um
oh
uh what kind you get
it's a Toyota Tercel i love it it's really nice yep
how do you like it
well that's good
my um wife just got a new car a Honda Civic so i think i think it's my turn
oh really
yeah
well a CRX not a Civic i don't why i said Civic yeah
oh a CRX that's what i was looking at
yeah she liked it and it's been pretty good so far she's had it about um six months now
yeah
and um it's been a really good car
yeah
but i don't know i think she when she got one i should get one so i'm looking although slowly right now
yeah
yeah my parents are thinking about getting a Toyota Camry
pardon me
my parents are thinking about getting a Toyota Camry because they're supposed to be i think i think Toyotas are really good cars
yeah
yeah just about everybody i've never had one but everybody i know who has they don't have too many complaints which is can't be said about a lot of cars
hm
yeah
but i don't know i think i want a a Chevy Blazer or a GMC Jimmy truck is what i'm looking for a wagon type of deal
yeah those are nice
it'd be good i look was i looked at a Toyota 4-Runner actually it's the same type of deal but smaller kind of like the S-10s
yeah
for the Chevys and i don't know i like i like the bigger ones better than the small ones if you're gonna buy a truck you might as well buy the real one instead of a toy truck
yeah
well my brother has a my brother just bought a Mazda a little Mazda truck and he loves it course and he's into the little trucks and all and the stereos
yeah
yeah
so
uh that sounds pretty good i used to have a an S-10 a little truck i don't know was it was more like having a car than a truck so i decided this time i'll get a big one
um-hum
yeah
my dad used to have a big full size GMC and um he just bought a little S-10 and now he hates it he wants a full size again yeah
yeah
he wants a big one again yeah
he's so used to driving a big truck
that has a lot of advantages and i'm up here in New Hampshire so up north with the snow and everything it's a a big advantage to us
yeah
you from Texas by the way yeah yeah most of the people i talk to on this are from down there i'm one of the few New East Coast people
yeah i'm in Dallas
yeah
well that sounds pretty good do you shop around pretty much when you were looking for your car or
yep
i didn't do not much at all i went and looked at a GMC i i went and looked at a little truck because i just i don't need you know much more and um
right
yeah
i went and looked at it and it was just i couldn't afford it or anything
so and i was just looking for a little stripped down
yeah
and they just wanted way too much for it so i was kind of looked around and i was going to look at a
mainly the trucks but i also looked at a Nissan Sentra
yeah
and then i went and i looked at the um Toyota Tercel and i ended up getting it because i really liked it i test drove it and i just love it
oh that's great
yep
are those um four cylinders do you know or six cylinder four cylinder
mine's a four cylinder
yeah you get pretty good gas mileage like
yeah really good
around thirty or more than that even or
it's about thirty i think it's thirty two in the city and uh like thirty out on the highway it's really good
yeah
yeah that's a that's about what my wife's car gets
little bit over thirty which is pretty good i can't complain right now i have a Ford Escort which is the terrible car but it gets good gas mileage so i can't complain too much but it's ugly and you know it's not real comfortable or anything but
yeah
yeah
i bought it used after i graduated from school and it's getting the job done but it's nothing that i really enjoy
yeah i used to have a Buick Skylark an eighty one
uh my brother used to have one of those
really mine was not a good car i bought it used and it
yeah
and then i had a lot of problems with it it just made me so mad that because i had to pretty much go out and get a new car
yeah lot of time in the shop
yeah most of the time or sitting out front yeah
yeah
yeah i know about that i had a i had a
Ford Thunderbird for a while and
fixed or repaired daily is the joke about the Ford and it was pretty accurate with that car i swore up and down i never own another Ford as long lived and i ended up anyway
yeah yep
yeah
yeah my family's pretty much against Fords too
oh i don't think i'll ever have another one after this one but so far it hasn't too mean to me
yeah
well that's good
um do you test drive a lot of cars before you um bought them
not really i only i test drove mine the one that i got now and um that's the the only one i went and when i looked at the CRX's uh i just looked at them and they had the lot that i went to the close
yeah
yeah
