If you want to see REALLY long lines.... visit the louvre!!

If the redesign is less than three years old, you might also factor that into your considerations. With cars, a lot of the issues don't come out until you've been driving it for a few years. When a car undergoes a major redesign, you're basically signing up to be the guinea pig if you're one of the first owners of it. Just food for though.

I have a Toyota Yaris and that thing is a tank. A tiny, lightweight tank that can't drive in the snow, but a tank nonetheless. My Malibu was a really great too. I bet you can't really go wrong with either choice.

The redesign is new, but they do it every five years and a couple of their cars have already been through the same redesign with no issue, so I'm not terribly worried about it, especially with a company that has a track record for dependability.

Speaking of Characters. Do they have the same similar character suits as Universal Studios?

Yes, they do.

Its insane how it went from horrible fires to sudden enormous mudslides...

Yep, California. They are no longer allowed to clear dead trees and brush to help prevent the large fires. Then they have the fires because it is so dry and any spark can cause a fire. So the trees die, the roots no longer hold the earth well, they finally get a few inches of rain and then everything falls apart. The state is just a disaster waiting to happen. Hmm. I am being kind of harsh I guess.

25 and already owned a condo? just how much you were getting paid

Assuming she probably had a mortgage on it. I could be wrong though.

 

[Gabe1]

wow, that is some great deal right now.

Hard to pass up. APs are dangerous.

Sympathy like. It is going to be 50 here tomorrow and 60 and rain on Friday. I will take the rain over ice and snow any day. Unfortunately back to freezing and below freezing starting Saturday.

Yeah, unfortunately, same here too. Ugh!!

I worked since I was 15 years old. Before I baby sat. I saved. I had a job in college. I lived at home a year after that to get a paid off car. The condo was actually first. Sold and bought house before kids. I saved and planned for future.

California is so big that it has pretty much every climate available. I grew up in the Santa Cruz mountains and we had earthquakes and mud slides, but they weren't a big deal. If you relocate to the Tahoe area though, you don't really have earthquakes but you'll have snow. If you relocate to Sacramento you don't have earthquakes, snow, or mudslides, but you might have fires nearby. I think every place you go has something you have to deal with.



The Carolinas are amazing. I could see moving there in the future.

I happen to like the Carolinas too! California is gorgeous though. Love the Fresno area and Ventura before the fires.

It may come down to the Camry and the Malibu. Going to look at the Camry again on Saturday. It may come down to which one with all the features I like can I get for cheaper.

I do have to say though, if the service department is anything like the sales department at this Chevy dealership, I should have been taking my car for service at this dealership. Seriously, totally not pushy about the purchase, friendly, and the general manager even called to make sure I was satisfied. Ah, hindsight. Always 20:20.

I have test-driven both a couple of years ago before we found my Jeep. I loved the Malibu! If we hadn't wanted a 4x4 this vehicle, I would have bought a Malibu. I liked the Camry but everybody here has one. I didn't like driving it as much either. My vote goes to the Malibu.

I honestly do not trust Toyota when redesigning lol. Id wait until gen2 of the same redesign before buying.

Reminds me of the tons of recalls for problems they have had and found later on.

 

[Figgy1]

No California! Florida! Or the Carolinas.

^^^^^^This!

The terms for financial things in english do not translate very well in spanish.

Thanks!

I love this cosplayer!

Crazy how is a 10-13 year old kid inside that suit! their parents did an awesome job and looks very real.

Six months. And ten pounds. She's slightly heavier than Belle. But Belle is still longer. Belle is a slender cat while Jasmine is a chunk a munk.

OMG is she part bobcat, that's a lot o kitten

I wish someone would make a laundry basket that would magically fold the clothes so I don't have to.

There are wash n fold places but even though I'm not a fan of doing laundry, they're not quite worth the money IMHO

 

[Figgy1]

Update to the snow day update.....It is snowing out now.

Sorry to hear that

 

[Figgy1]

Another manager from my team walked over to my desk. Halfway through talking to me he asks, "Do you have a headache?"

I may as well wear a sign...

{{HUGS}} and Excedrin xoxo

I really don't like toyota camrys. It's that simple.
Edit. I cannot comment on the cruze as we don't get Chevy in the UK any more. Just don't like the way the toyota drives. But that is just me.

Maybe you would if you drove on the right side of the road
