I might actually buy a KIA if it wasn’t for this commercial.
Now that we’re looking for a new car, we’re looking at all sorts of cars from the Ford Fusion to the Toyota Camry.
Last night during Nikita, they had a lot of commercials for the 2011 Kia Optima and it looks like a really nice car.
However, KIAs are not high on our list thanks to this commercial by the local KIA dealership. It makes me think that I’m buying from some shady used car salesman. If this is how they advertise their company, I see no reason to shop there.
What Kind Of Car Should I Buy?
It’s been a good run, but it’s about time to trade in the Ford Focus and get something new.
I’ve had my car for 10 years and it’s been doing great. Except for the fact that I have no a/c anymore, it takes a while to heat up and there are other minor things that happens over the years.
So what should my next car be?
It has to be a mid-sized car, or smaller SUV, as we now have Lily and all the stuff that comes with a little one.
Cruising Past 100,000 Miles
It’s been 8 years and a ton of memories since I bought my Ford Focus. Over the Easter weekend my Focus hit 100,000 miles!
I was worried that it may expire when it hit the 100k mark. You know, planed obsolesce. But it didn’t, it just kept cruising down the highway. Granted, it did leave us stuck on the side of the road over the weekend, but that was a relatively cheap fix.
At this point, I don’t see any reason to get rid of my Focus. It has one feature that no other car can offer. No monthly payment. 
Who says adults can’t have fun toys?
I’m a believer that just because you get older, doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy the basics in life. Believe it or not, if you go down the toy aisle at the store, you’ll find something that is a heck of a lot of fun!
We recently got an electric powered race track and it’s so cool. It has loops and cyclones and even upside down track for the cars to run on. It’s like one I had as a kid, only this one has all the parts and it works well.
