BTW, I talked my wife out of a Mustang, but no choice as of the

YAY!!!

Now, go buy here a Corvette.


If you haven't, check out a BMW 330i or 330ci. It is sporty,
gobs of power and handles beautifully.
The 330ci is a convertable. The top is double layered and
insulated. With it up you cannot distinguish it as being a
convertible, noise or cold-wise.

Or the 335i. Twin turbos in a BMW!

My wife is more into "cute" cars than "performance" cars, and also (a
paradox) likes to sit higher in a heavier vehicle than most sports or
sporty cars allow. It's going to take a while for her to find what
she really wants, when and if she devotes some time to the task.

Hmmm. A pick-me-up truck?


Have you looked at the Toyota Highlander? No, it is not a pickup but
a small SUV with a car-like ride. My wife has one and loves it.



We have a 4Runner she drives now. I like the Highlander, too, but it is
a frameless SUV and as you imply, a car, not a truck. The 4Runner has a
traditional truck frame. Still, the highlander has a lot of appeal.

If I can keep the wife working, the Toyota Highlander may be my next
vehicle. It should handle my 2000 pound boat/trailer tow weight easily.
