2001 Hyundai Sonata. I've had that thing for 4 years and its the WORST vehicle I've ever own. I'm trying to sell it, but no one will give me what I owe. EVERYTHING breaks, and the warranty ran out 10k miles ago.

Do not ever buy a vehicle with the syllable 'die' in it.

Oh God.

I hope it's not an 01 Sonata. And if it is, I'll send all my good karma waves his way.

The CV boots & axels have been replaced every 8 months or so, the timing belt 3 times, the power steering pump twice, the motor is less than 2 years old (the first time the timing belt went out, it took the whole motor with it, but that was under warranty), and the Hyundai dealer here doesn't keep parts for it in stock. Last time it broke down (needed a new harmonic balancer, since when they did the new motor, they installed the old harmonic balancer upside down and backwards) it took 3 weeks to get the part in. I screamed at them. Oh and since I'm the second owner, I didn't get the 10 year 100k mile warranty. But I was told that when I bought it. So at 62k miles when my timing belt went out for the second time, I took it in and they said they wouldnt do it under warranty.

I've tried to trade it in, no one will give me more than $1,000 for it and I owe $3,500. As soon as it's paid off, its going bye bye.

LOL yeah. I tried trading it in, and one of the dealerships actually suggested, with a straight face, that I sell crack to try and get my car paid off sooner, since they wont take it as a trade in, because I owe too much on it, and since it is in "horrible condition" (how the f&$@ did he know, he didn't appraise it! And the exterior is in great condition. Its just under the hood that sucks) they would only give me "about $1000, and thats stretching it."

The other place actually took it for a drive and said they'd give me $1500 and I said no, since Blue Book was $3000 for poor condition. You know as well as I do that they would have bought it for $1500, put $500 (new windshield and detailing) into it, and sold it for $6k.

Just replaced my 91 explorer, with a 99 explorer. the 91 died at 190,000. All the lights from the 91 will transfer onto the 99, with the exception of possibly changing the whelen edge to a federal strobe vista. When the 91 died I had almost 30 lights total, the new one wont have quite that many. It was overkill. Im loving my 99 exploder though.

Ok not trying to bash you here bc I was a vollie who loved lights and had a bar and wigs with two 100 watt siren speakers but WHO THE F*** NEEDS 30 LIGHTS?? If traffic cannot see you without 30 lights damn thats a problem.

I drive a 2000 toyota camry that was a handme down when my wife just got a new 2006 Toyota RAV4 and we are trying to be rid of my very faithful 1999 Chevy Monte Carlo LS with 155,000 miles for only $3500.
