I think I mentioned above some other prices, but in general, I don't pay much and it works out to be a better deal if you own a car here. The Dodge Charger was all right for me. I liked it, but you're right -- the windows were too small, it felt too bulky to park, which is funny that I should say that, since I drive a minivan and apparently those are very hard to park :P My insurance is very low in Quebec.

The static was awful! It was sexy but useless. Kind of makes me happy that I own a cassette deck now ;) I tried the Belkin FM radio tuner once and I had to return it. The static was awful!

I totally drive a minivan. People always give me the strangest looks when I tell them I own a minivan. "What's a semi-single, young girl like you driving THAT? How many kids do you have!?" me: *sigh*.... :) I tell them it was a good price, in fabulous condition and I don't mind driving such a big car -- I mean really, the Dodge Charger I rented was the same length and I PREFER the minivan for its open windows for when I parallel park, etc.. No, it’s not me but thank you for thinking so *preen preen* LOL!

If so, you are so cute! I love that you drive a mini van. I have a crossover and everyone calls it a mini van! Is that you in the pic? If so, you are so cute! I love that you drive a mini van.

They work much better than the FM radio adapters. Definitely get the cassette deck adapter. They work much better than the FM radio adapters.

In NS I pay about $1100/year on my Mazda3. I too love my little car to pieces :) I had a Dodge Charger as a rental car a few years ago and I had a lot of trouble driving it--optically it felt effed up--like the windows were too small for the car or something? I liked the speed though. Wow, your insurance is low! In NS I pay about $1100/year on my Mazda3. I too love my little car to pieces :)

But, I can't beat the economy of my little car. Of course, it's not the most economical, because I still owe on it....But, it's got a low monthly payment, gets amazing gas mileage and has a sunroof for good measure. I bought it used and only had it's suspension links break once, but all in all, pretty well and good. I can't justify buying a new car...ever. It's like buying a new house. The value automatically depreciates the moment you buy it! I have a little Saturn Ion…and now I wish I had something bigger. But, I can't beat the economy of my little car.
