Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Dot you should get something like ours but you'd need a dolly..
There is a dolly for sale here in Mannum. (well was anyway)
OK, you can't back up but you presently can't anyway?
They are making less & less cars suitable for towing so with a dolly the market opens up.
You don't probably need a 4WD either?
Mazda 3 or a Hyundai i3 are popular at present & seem to be reliable.
Bruce,
On my “Crusade” horse again...
‘Less’ is used where you can’t count individual components of the mass. eg. water, flour, etc.
If you can separate individual components the correct word is ‘fewer’. eg. marbles, goats, cars, etc.
... same rule applies to ‘amount’ and ‘number’...
eg. “The amount of cars on city roads ...” is incorrect.
Regards & God bless,
Ray

Thanks everyone for your car thoughts, this car won't be for towing but for quite a few yrs now. Will get a cheapie tow car later. What is a dollie wheel Bruce? Were given a trade in price of $13k for our Suzuki and they had no idea what the hitch was??? I do not like used car salesman at all plus the guy was so rude he can go %^$ himself, Had a Hyundai 1997 loved it. Shall keep on trying to get head around the specs of a few cars. Might go for a drive to do some window shopping. I hope everyone is keeping warm and dry horror of a day it was. Time to pat my pussy and say goodnight everyone x Goodnight Ray x keep up your editing
P.S. Bruce I found out what a car dolly is.
Queen of the Banal & OT chatter and proud of it. If it offends you then tough titty titty bang bang.
Dot, toyotas are tough is my motto. When I found that the 20 year old pulsar was getting too low to get into, I tried many cars to find which one suited my seating needs. The rav 4 was the only smallish car that I could comfortably sit in, so managed to find a slightly used one of them. The best research is to do some test drives of all the cars in your price bracket. Lots of luck with that search. Keep that pussy warm xxxx
Today our weather became winter too. Bloomin freezing winds and heavy rain, generally not nice to be outside in. So we packed up all the window panel stuff and brought the soldering work up to the house to do. My shed is too small to create a full sized window in and I had been happily w**king in the sunshine next to my shed. Hopefully tomorrow, the worst of the job will be over. Well most of the soldering, I hope. Gotta just love a bit of stained glass work, it's so flamin slow.
Not impressed by Hyundai's warranty. All talk and no fixes for our Getz... but it has been pretty reliable with its constant rattles and grinds.
I looked at a Honda Civic about a year ago. Was really impressed by the engineering. My preference would be Japanese and then back to Hyundai. Don't buy European; really only designed to last past the warranty period. And look up who owns the parent company.
