So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

How To Have A Happy Car Shopping

By Elena Evans


Many people look at searching for a car as a frustrating task. Driving a car can be fun, but buying one requires you to spend time finding important information. By following the tips in this article, you can take the misery out of car shopping and turn it into a more enjoyable experience.

Make sure that you work with the dealership to lower the sticker price of the vehicle. It is never smart to pay sticker price on a car. Those prices are inflated on purpose to leave room to negotiate with the customer, so take advantage of that.

Before buying a used car with garrett turbo from a dealership, ask to have it looked over by a third-party mechanic. If they say no, leave. A mechanic can offer an impartial opinion about the vehicle. He can determine whether the car has hidden damage from previous accidents or being submersed.

Take time to research your dealer before making an offer on a vehicle. This helps you prepare yourself for the negotiation phase. In addition, being aware of the dealer's customer reviews can prevent the dealer from ripping you off.

Always test drive a car before you buy it. Do not skip the test drive, even if you have already taken another car of the same model for one. This is the best way to find out about mechanical problems and get an idea of how the car handles.

Consider renting a car just to test drive them. You can drive it to the country, another city or somewhere else where you'll get a nice, long drive out of it. Go on a trip in that car with your family to decide if it fits you well. This is an effective way to get acquainted with that type of car before you make the commitment to purchase.

Don't take it for granted that the sticker price is the lowest you'll pay. What the dealers list on the sticker is not what they actually think they will get. If you can't negotiate, bring in a skilled friend. You must know what the fair market value of the vehicle you want is before you set foot in the dealership.

Even before you go to a dealership, have a certain number in your mind. This number must be based on what you wish to spend, along with market research on your chosen model's general value.

Don't divulge your trade-in car immediately. Only reveal this after the negotiation process is complete. The dealer will give you a worse deal if you tell him about the trade-in too soon.

If you drive a pricey vehicle already, don't bring it with you on your car shopping trip. If you do, the salesperson will not take any low offers you have.

If you know you want a specific model, call ahead and ask if the dealer has one on the lot. The salesman will do everything they can to have the car ready for you. You'll just be wasting your time if they don't have the car that you want. Give them a call to avoid this hassle.

If you find a car you want, be sure you are confident in your decision. Inspect the exterior of the car for scratches and dents. Search the interior for carpet stains or upholstery tears. Keep in mind that it's yours when you buy it. Any dents or stains found later will be your responsibility.

Anxiety and other negative feelings can plague a car purchase. Doing your homework and walking into the dealership as a well-educated buyer is the key to a successful buying experience. Store this article in a safe space and refer to it often as you go through this process.
