Choosing An SUV

Finally, our daycare lady was able to get her old van replaced. Soon after she got a new car, a fire accident happened at her place. Due to that unfortunate incident, the daycare had to close for a few days. That meant I couldn't go to work for several days. Although I can do work stuff at home, there are some things that I can only do in the office such as filing, sending correspondence, checks, etc. Anyway, our daycare's old van had been causing her problems. Mechanically, it had not really been performing well. She had been contemplating on getting any of the popular hybrid cars or one the following: Honda, Porsche, or Ford Transit Connect. With the way the economy is doing nowadays, hybrid is the way to go. You can save more and besides, it's environment friendly.

She came across Car Connection online and read about interesting facts and reviews about each vehicle. She was more inclined on getting a van or SUV. For Honda, she thought the Pilot model was more spacious especially since she has kids. Out of 10 with 10 being the highest, it got an 8 rating. So that's a high one I suppose. Porsche has its own line of SUV'S and it's called Cayenne. Safetywise, this vehicle got a 9 rating. It has every safety feature you could think of that any car should have. Impressive! From the photos I've seen, the Ford Transit Connect is a beautiful van. This is not only good for big families but also for small business owners. And another great thing about this van is it fits a disabled person on a wheelchair. Next week when I drop the boys, I'd be able to see the new SUV or van she ended up choosing.
