toyota lease options

Car recommendations wanted - good fuel economy but not too tiny?

My 1997 Toyota Tercel seems to be on its way to the junkyard. It's got over 100K miles and the same thing it did two months it's doing now and I really don't want to put any more money into it.

As I haven't gone car shopping in over ten


Don't get me wrong - if you've got plenty of money then it's fine to get a new one. It's just most folks who post on here are head over heels in debt. My first advice would be 100k miles is nothing these days. Get somebody on it that knows how to fix
