I am a sucker with cars, I brought my FIRST car 2yrs ago. I walked in and paid the price... yea I beat I was the easiest sale that guy had ever had.. not so good for me.

But I love my car, so I try and ignored the shocked faces when I told people lol. Good luck Car Hunting!

I'm getting a honda odyssey, that should be big enough to hold me ;-) I know it's korny but I need a family car.

I've secured a loan and am going to pick it up next weekend. It is nerve wracking going through the process.

What I found helped me a lot is getting a quote over the internet. You can select the local car dealers you want the quote from. Then they know you've seen the invoice and blue book value of the car so they can't over price you. Also they think they're competing with other dealers and that motivates them to give you a lower price. Then they think you're all savy and crap and seem to be more down to earth once you go in person. That was my experience anywhoo.

good luck!

damn, that really makes me sound like a dealer...

When I started kickboxing aerobics (it's fun to learn how to kick ass while exercising) my knees started to hurt and click too. The instructor suggested a supplement: Glucosamine and Condroitin (they come in the same pill and you can buy them at the pharmacy). This stuff is recommended to old people with arthritis and joint pains because they help lubricate your joints. Within a week I was feeling a slight difference and pretty soon there was no more pain. It's at least worth a shot. Happy knees are important to exercising.
