Earlier this year we traded in Heidi's old Taurus for a pre-owned Ford Focus. We got a very nice deal and to be quite honest it is a real nice car, we both like it.
Now I had talked to Heidi before hand and we both knew it was time to upgrade my vehicle but our finances like a lot of other people are really tight. I made the appointment and went there on Friday. I spoke to a real nice guy named Mike. I told him I had since changed my mind on what I was looking for because of a couple of reasons. One being fuel economy and two being price. We felt we could afford a car more than a truck.
After looking at what he had to offer I ended up with the exact same car Heidi has but, in a different color.| Odometer: | 52853 mi |
| Exterior: | Aqua Blue Metallic |
| Interior: | Charcoal |
| Engine: | 2.0L I4 16V MPFI DOHC |
| Transmission: | Automatic |
Current Price: $8,995
They gave me enough for my truck that it made my payments very reasonable to say the least, better than I originally expected. So it was a great start to a four day weekend. I go Monday afternoon to pick it up.

Like you Rick I've had a truck so long I can't picture myself in anything else. It's a shame you couldn't get a truck but you have to do what you have to do. It does look like a nice ride though. Hope it serves you well. Is that what we're taking to the banquet?
I traded in my truck a few years ago for a Ford Taurus, and although sometimes I miss the truck, I have never regretted the decision.
Sometimes you do what you gotta do, Rick, and if buying a car instead of a truck helps with the finances and allows you to hunt a little more,
then so be it.
Plus you'll love it when you go to the gas pump.
nice car Rick, I only have one question, where do you put the deer?LOL
Congrats Rick, I really like the color of your new car. With economics looking the way they are, you will have more opportunity to do what you like to do. Enjoy the outdoors.
Allen, thanks. Yes it is what were taking to the banquet.
Arthur, I think I am going to be happy with my decision as well.
Nate, to answer your question there is always plastic and a nice big trunk.
Mel, financially it was a good choice.
