Seems Beth has started a trend. Recently under a post about terrorism Phillip posted his plea for auto
advice.

“I’m a big guy (about 6’2” 250lbs) and am looking for a nice, roomy car – new, if possible – for as little money
as possible. Styling isn’t too important, horsepower is fairly important – but not a deal-breaker – and I would like
to be able to keep the car for many many years, so reliability is very important. Any ideas?”

Well first we need more info. How much is “as little money as possible?” Are you looking for a sedan, wagon, SUV?
Right off the top of my head are the popular sedans like the Toyota Camry, Nissan Altima (2005), Mazda6, Chevy Malibu
and for that money factor Ford Taurus. I’d almost recommend the new Mitsubishi Galant but because of the company’s
recent troubles there might not be a dealership to service those 10-year warranties.
