About a month ago I had been advised not to drive my 1997 Ford Taurus out of town because the air conditioner unit had the potential to fall apart. The day before I left for state fair my dad got a call from the mechanic at the body shop and said there might be more wrong with my lovely dark green Taurus than he originally thought and he wouldn't know what was wrong with until they started taking it apart. To top it off, the brakes in the back were shot. After finding out how much it was going to cost (approx. $1500) to fix the Taurus, Dusty told me to go down to the one of the local dealerships and pick out something different. The dealership, Dan Porter Motors, was having their annual push, pull, or drag sale and we were guaranteed $2000 on our trade. I didn't have to push, pull, or drag the Taurus in, but it fit the sale criteria perfect. In addition, my family has bought cars from Dan Porter Motors several times and has always been satisfied.
I drove a 2004 Honda Accord first and absolutely fell in love. It was quiet, smooth, and efficient. However, Dusty thought we should keep looking. After test driving a couple of more cars the salesman thought we should drive a 2010 Toyota Camry that was in the lot. Dusty and I figured it was too good to be true. Nevertheless, we walked out of the dealership on Thursday evening with a brand new 2010 Toyota Camry. Our salesman was excellent and got us a really, really good deal. Needless to say we were/still are very excited about our new vehicle. We plan to drive this car forever. All I can say is....I absolutely love my Camry!!
