I'd like to buy a new vehicle but I really like not having a car payment and I kind of like my little Focus (except I don't like it now because of the shaking issue).

Just curious.
I must say it also depends in the country and all, but around here Chevrolet are fairly easy to maintain, cheap parts and all......Nissan are very tough cars but they have very expensive sparks.....which you change not very often but still when you do OMG!!.......

I have had a Neon and a Cirrus (Sebring) and they are very nice cars not too expensive and very soft wheel drive.....

it also depends what you want the car for......Focus are nice cars, the balancing and alignment are very fast to do and it will get your car back in condition besides keeping tires in good shape.....
