So revelations happened today.

Drove 3 Chargers. I love the look and idea of those cars. But I don't fit. I have short stubby legs and a long torso. Roll up to my first stoplight in an 07 and can't see the light at all gotta bend my neck halfway over to see the stoplight. Checked the seat and yep all the way down. Even leaning it back didn't help.

Drove 2 more just to be sure but I hate that in a car.

No charger or 300 for this guy. They both have the same problem.

We drove an Acura TL a '10 with the ugly front. Well that moved to the top of our list. Nice car.

For kicks we drove a MB C300 sport. Really liked that car too.

So who knows about Acura TLs?

We have decided to get what we want 20k is gonna be the top end. Cars under 10k all seem to have issues.

The TL we drove only had 54k on it. Couple of scratches ( black car) but drove great.

The Mercedes same deal drove stellar.

So as much as I hate it we are gonna end up spending more than 10k
 
Acura easy to maintain yourself but does have a timing belt which is due at 105k or 7 yrs which ever comes first,plugs due at 105 with valve adjustment. Air filter and cabin easy to replace on. oil change is to do and trans fluid change once year no matter what! It takes 3.5 trans fluid MAKE SURE Honda/Acura fluid only. it has a drain plug with 3/8 spot for ratchet and fluid comes right out. Great over all car with nice power and holds good value.
