Hi everyone...I have not been lurking around much because I have had to give up my baby....my blue CX 7. My family is in an extreme financial crunch(big hint...hubby sells real estate and this is the second year in a row of a huge decline in income!) I am now driving a 2006 Chevy HHR LT...orange(love the color and the styling) but man I have to tell you I hate the drive of this thing...I did not like much of anything and this was the only style car I liked in my price range...sad to say. I wanted a used 3 but even those are in demand and were too expensive for me. Mazda far exceeds Chevy in every aspect. I even have the bigger engine(not an SS) and it is slow, handling is horrible, steering is so loose and mooshy and it's just boring. I cried over this and have been depressed and I am not usulally an unhappy person. Oh and I just got hail damage on it from a storm recently as did my house and camper. We have to sell our house too....big and beautiful but again cannot afford it any longer. I have heard more and more stories about the economy taking it's toll and we just happen to be ones really hit hard. I hope you all are doing well and I know this too shall pass and I will be zoom, zooming again. Please appreciate what you have....Mazda's rock!!! And appreciate all that you have...family, health, friends etc....it's all that matters ultimately! I will try and check back in when I can or feel free to PM me! Peace to everyone!!!
