Replying to: jlawrence01 (Mar 11, 2007 2:00 pm) Problem for my sis is that she wants lots of room. So short of getting yet another SUV, this fit the bill real nice. And I couldn't get her to like the xB, no matter how hard I tried. After driving around in her 2003 CRV all day, I found the Caliber to be quite a bit more comfortable and quieter. I think that says alot. (after making the observation, the others on the trip agreed, so it wasn't just my imagination). The Mazda3? Boring? I'm not sure what that is in comparison to, but if you compare it to the others in its class and pricerange, I don't see how anyone could say that. I'd be willing to bet it would easily be the track star out of all the $15k new cars out there. |

Was coming back from the mall this afternoon and saw the Hyundai dealer so pulled in there to check out the 2007 Santa Fe. Had seen one at the mall a week ago and wanted a closer look. Have to say I was impressed, really nice SUV for the money. Lots of room, nice design, good warranty, and quite fun to drive. Temptation was there, but then I think about it not holding its value, about people thinking I've lost what was left of my mind, all that fun stuff, lol.

Some friends of ours have an '07 Santa Fe. They traded in their '03 Santa Fe on it (and, before the '03 Santa Fe, they had an '03 Elantra for about 5 or 6 weeks which they traded in). Anyway, I haven't yet ridden in the '07, but from what I've seen, it's very impressive in terms of room and features. They got, I believe, a GLS trim with 5 seats. No idea what they paid for it. Glad you were able to exercise a bit of self-restraint. |

Replying to: grandtotal (Mar 12, 2007 5:25 am) LOL, probably, but that was the first new vehicle I've test driven in over 8 months, so I am getting better. My truck turned 20k miles the other day, sure doesn't seem like I've driven it that much. |

Replying to: akangl (Mar 12, 2007 9:18 am) Your Ram has 20K miles, after a year or so? Maybe you're using it a lot? I notice Bobby Flay (celebrity chef on the food channel) drives a black/black D/C current-gen Ram, at least on TV.....

Replying to: woodyww (Mar 12, 2007 3:02 pm) Its just over 8 months old, so yeah its been driven a little, lol. Nearly 6k miles of those 20k are from our trip to Washington. I'm not driving nearly as much as I used to, even less as time goes on. |

Replying to: corvette (Mar 09, 2007 5:28 pm) I also agree, why commute that far if he wants to conserve gas? I bet he could have ridden a bicycle to get milk too. Finally, his last name showed up on page 4 of the article. It was a quote from the 17-years-old who momentarily led the competition. I hope his insurance agent and traffic law enforcement officials aren’t reading this. |

Replying to: jlawrence01 (Mar 09, 2007 7:03 pm) Anyway, the drive was beautiful, especially Skyline Drive.

Vacation in a few weeks.. We are looking to spend a couple of days in Sedona. Any recommendations on where to stay in Sedona? Any Jeep tour companies? Two adults and a 13-yr-old. Medium budget.
