Helping with Car Shopping

I don’t like to go in cars as they usually mean going to the vet. My humans wanted to get me used to driving by taking my to see Grandma, but it never worked I am a big scaredy cat when it comes to getting in the car.

Human2’s car has about 120K miles on it and it is not even paid for yet! She is looking at new cars for when the times comes to replace her beloved PT Cruiser. So I have been helping her find information out about some cars.

We have been looking at Pontiac cars like the G3, which gets really good gas mileage or at least better mileage than our current PT Cruiser does. Between naps I have been daydreaming about the BMW M5. What a car! If we had a dog we would so be looking at the new pet friendly Honda Element. It has paw and bone accents, built in water bowl, extra vents in the back for more doggy air, and a stow-away ramp to help dogs get in the back. It is pretty sweet for puppy owners.

It would seem though that the 2011 Ford Fiesta is more our speed. It is a cute little car, which we like and it should be good on gas, but it is a Ford. We are not Ford people. Maybe we should take a look at some Buick cars too. Most likely we will stick with a Chrysler. Toyota and Honda are on the wishlists too.

No worries though. We hope it will be awhile before we have to seriously look forward to buying a new car. Right now we are only window shopping on the net.
