what do you ...

drive? i didnt want this to get moved. I need to get a new car i have a two door and theres no way i can get in and out with the baby without a struggle each time. Do you think a four door would be easy or is a suv better? I dont want a big suv...i like the kia sorento. Are kias even a good car?

Re: what do you ...

OH, I am crying over getting rid of my 2 door. DH wants to start to take my 2 door to the train and get me a new SUV to replace his. I'd be happy b/c his SUV is bigger than I would like. But I do not want to take on car payments right now. I love not having any.

I will be the one taking the baby places during the week.

DH really wants to always have at least one SUV. He does a lot of home improvements himself and he loves having a car that can lug around whatever he needs when he buys supplies. His thinking makes sense but I think I would love a hybrid of some sort.

Anyway, I think that Kia is known more for price than quality, in all honesty.

I drive a Civic and am trying to figure out if we can get away with keeping it...I don't want an SUV but the baby "stuff" I see the more I realize all that "stuff" is sooooo not going to fit in that compact car....
I don't know much about Kia's, but a friend of mine bought a Hyundai Tuscon and she loves it....

I currently drive a Civic but by luck the lease is up two weeks before I'm due. We've already settled on the CR-V - cannot wait!!

Re: what do you ...

i have a honda accord, 03. There is a big trunk, so stroller room shouldnt be a problem. I have a 6 yr old that sits in the booster seat, so i will have 2 chickadees with seats in the back. It will be snug, but i think we will manage. i thought about getting a new car, but i know my honda will last forever, and no payments in another few years is music to my ears. So we are going to work with what we got.

Re: what do you ...

So funny that you posted this, as DH and I were just discussing this last night. Right now I drive a Maxima, but next year we will be buying a new car. Right now we are thinking about an Explorer or a Tahoe.

Re: what do you ...

I have the Hyundai Tucson and I LOVE it...it received great safety ratings, it's good on gas mileage and gives me the SUV room without having to drive too big of a vehicle (I was previously a small car driver).

And the price was reasonable too!
