Hi Space-we are going south. Might be a few nice days. I don't like cold weather anyways. I picked up the rental car and had my choice of a Camry, Impala, or Mazda 6. Any ideas what I picked???

Hi `Jerry,
I'd pick the Mazda 6, but I think you choose the Impala...

I like the way that Mazda builds their rides to handle/brake/ride...One of the guys I work with has one & he loves it...He also has a 05 Corvette...He's a car guy & know a lot of cars...I've driven the Mazda 3 & also the little Mazda 2 with only 100 HP & it's like a little go-kart...It handles 4-Sure..It's only about 2200 lbs & get over 35 MPG's..

I hope everything works out 4 you & family ~> EnJoy

Well Mike you are wrong and Space gets the cake.
I chose the 2012 Mazda just for kicks and the fact I have never driven one. After researching the net, I see the 4cyl has only 170hp but the six has 270. Crap that it has a 4. But it seems to ride and drive nice. It is a dark gray and actually looks decent. It will save me some fuel I am sure. Will go 500 miles on 18.5 gallons. Gonna take it out later and ride it.
Snow storm coming in Tuesday night and we are leaving early Wednesday so I hope we can beat some of it.

Hi `Jerry, (I will have 2 write that down `if I was right on something) That 2.5L Engine is a great little engine with a lot of torque...You should get over 30 +MPG on the highway.
I sure hope you get out b-4 the storm hits...How many miles on the Mazda ? Does it look abused ? Do the tires look good ?
Good Luck!
==========================================
I can't wait to get some `off time to spend with my Beach Bum family & friends...Also, just about every employee with the company has invited me over to their homes during the holidays....No matter how much I try to master my time, there's just not enough hours in a day 4-me...I'd like to be able to visit everyone, but it just can't happen...

I wish Santa could just give my g/f & I one day with each other with no interruptions or obligations...(I'm done, that my vent for 2day)

I wish everyone time to spend with those they love 4-Sure
