Yes! We decided on the Altima and just when we were about to go to the dealer, a friend suggested either a Lexus or an Avalon to my sister. Better is always good, right? Hihi.....anyways, we couldn't afford the Lexus. Well, we could if we don't eat for 5 years. So, we decided to take a look at the Avalon. We still need to tighten the budget a bit, but at least we can still eat. Oh yeah, the seat raises! I can see over the dashboard. No more seat cushions, hihi.

That's really cool about the radio and syncing with the phone.

The Avalon gets good reviews in Consumer Reports, and I think you'll be really happy with it. Great job!

gorgeous. the car I mean.

That's their flagship. more like a Maxima. very nice car. My exstepfatherinlaw had 2 while I knew him, and they are rock solid. I'm sure it will serve you well. It was my pleasure coaching you. Glad I made some small difference.

CONGRATS!

Thanks, Glatt. We're enjoying it so far. I hope it'll last for 20 or more years.

Thanks, Jim. I just wished Toyota wouldn't make all their trimmings black. Oh well..... By the way, I don't mind if you call me gorgeous. (just joking :-P )

I scored all-weather mats from the salesperson. :-D

Apparently the car is hot. No snow or icicles.
