Lets talk about new vehicles

I'd take the one with the best seating, and consider suspension and the roads where I'm going. If that's the accord, then I'd get the gas bonus, otherwise not.

That was quick.
Took a 20 mile run this morning.
The Accord suspension is coming around and at this point the bad things are disappearing.
So smooth and frugal it's the winner
Plus amazing trunk space and safety features. I filled up this morning and gas is down here
$2.85 for Sunoco and I see 734 mile range show on the dash.....

My neighbor had the last year made and left the moonroof open one night during a heavy rain and the car was just a year old.

The insurance company just totaled it....crazy..

At one point my immediate family had 4 Fusions. We are down to one now but they were/are great cars.

The remaining one is a 16 SE with the 2.5 I bought for my youngest daughter years ago. Now married it is still their only car and it’s been super reliable. About 125k last I checked and no interest in trading it.

Changing headlights in it is a pain though.

Oh do I remember the lights on our 2014 - fortunately I had watched a video and decided to do all the bulbs while “in surgery”
We put 157k on it and it ran like new - great car !

Oddly, have never had to replace bulbs in any of our cars with flush headlamps (1998+), only side and rears. I’m dreading headlamps or turn signals in a xenon bulb’d car. Admittedly the DRL’s on a BMW E92 is very unpleasant, did both halogens at different times. Has to do with access and brittle wires. It’s good to hear the word “reliable” describing vehicles nowadays. The other extreme is “didn’t make it home from the dealer” on a new car
