And now begins my nightmare of buying a car. Not a shiny, glossy, new one; but a used one that gets me from point A to B.
So I start with the classifieds in the paper and online searches. I am just browsing at the moment. I have to mentally prepare myself for the mouse clicks, footwork, phone calls and pricing issues.
I also have to brush up on my jargon, so that I am not treated as a “Ah! a woman driver!”
I just want the dealer to look at me and answer my questions pertaining to the car in a manner that doesn’t tell me that I am a caveman when it comes to a car. My apologies to the Geico caveman.
I sure can understand mileage, spark plugs, transmission, chassis, etc. I can also change a tire and put the coolant/anti freeze in the right area. Some respect here please?
For the moment I have several leads. Car Seeker at TBO.com, Autotrader, craigslist and local used cars sales stores. What I don’t have is a used car that has caught my fancy.
Did I say used cars? I meant pre-owned vehicle.
