The car is too messy. He wants to be at a birthing center, like a normal person.

Fords are not my thing. when upstate we had a nice F 250 quad and did a plan thru work X plan or friends and family. The flex is..........agressive looking?
See if your work offers one

Oh c'mon. This is just a surreptitious way of getting someone to say "unlike the junk in your avatar." Stop fishing.

I like it. Looks a little like a hearse.

If I had more than one but fewer than four kids, our other car would be this:

Can't you just pop one of these on the trailer hitch if you need extra seats?

I don't think they sell that in the U.S. of A.

Which reminded me, Chrysler is meant to be selling four versions of this Fiat in the US in 2011:

It's the 2011 model. They sell an MT Mazda5 here already; just an older bodystyle. It's on sale in Europe first, but I've seen nothing to indicate Mazda will have a different Mazda5 for the U.S.

Allegedly, however, they are super-comfortable and when fully-loaded limousine-like inside.

Despite this, I am with you. It's far too ugly to drive.

Your are hopeless.

But you would probably likethe renault twingo I am cruising around Ireland in.

Re: New Car
 

I'm not a fan of replacing the radiator (they go on on the E39 around 100k miles... bad part-plastic valve design) or having to replace suspension parts (wife drives like a lunatic and broke control arms), but other than that, it runs like the day we got it. I plan to get 250-300k out of it. I plan to do the same with my Toyota truck as well. If it all works out, I'll have gone many, many years without making any car payments, which I fucking loathed.
