Are You Looking For A New Ride?

I currently drive a 2011 Dodge Avenger, I have no issues with it, I am just a brat and want a new vehicle.

I bought my Dodge brand new, I have traveled the country in it and made a lot of memories.  Yes, it is paid off which and it’s nice not having a payment.  But I have the itch, the itch to get a new ride.  I have been eyeing up two vehicles, the electric Ford Mustang or the Hyundai Santa Cruz.

The Mustang is pretty expensive and not suitable for my current budget but man does it look cool.  Plus, the thought of never going to the gas station again sounds great.  Also, having a fully charged car every morning sounds wonderful as well.  The other vehicle I have been looking at is a Hyundai Santa Cruz.

It is an interesting vehicle, it’s not a truck or suv, it’s an adventure vehicle.  I like it because I have always wanted a truck but I have no need for one, this gives you the feel of a truck.  It’s very sporty looking and not too big to drive, it’s almost like sitting in a smaller suv.  We test drove one at Wyatt Johnson and I was very impressed with the inside, all the room I had and all the features the vehicle offers.

I will need a new vehicle soon but I want to buy one now.  I just paid off some debt, if I can pay some more off soon then I will consider buying a new ride.  But with gas prices being the way they are I may want to consider buying a bicycle.
