About two years ago, I stumbled upon my main car almost by accident. I was looking for a vehicle at a good price with plenty of trunk space in case my wife needed to start using a wheelchair (something that has since come to pass). My wife's old Neon was on its last legs, and my car was already in semi-retirement with over 200K miles. We knew a hurricane was coming soon, and we needed to get reliable transportation right away -- and that was when I laid eyes on my Suzuki Forenza.

While it isn't my favorite car ever (I still love that Escort), I have been quite happy with the Forenza. It rides great, runs well, and has given me precisely NO mechanical difficulties during the two years I've been driving it. Indeed, it would never have been in the shop at all were it not for the hit-and-run accident during the Hurricane Rita evacuation and the full-body keying that it took from an angry student last spring. I get great gas mileage, have plenty of room in the car, and have space to spare in the trunk with the wheelchair.

Now I had time to shop for that car. I had time to compare car insurance companies and quotes, and found that the company I am with offers me the best price and coverage. And since Suzuki got very safety conscious after the problems with one of its early models 20 years ago, my insurance rates are very good. And after a little bit of haggling about a couple of possible loans to pay for it, I ended up with a great rate through my bank that topped what the dealer was offering.

Yeah, you could say that I'm quite happy with my car. Why wouldn't I be?
