My wife is driving a 2006 Chevy Cobalt. It's got a hair less than 40K miles, and has been a great car so far. No problems whatsoever (knock on wood). I was driving a 1998 Acura 2.3 CL that I'd had since 2000. Sold it a while back, and we were a 1 car household for a while. It wasn't a big deal because we both work in Bethesda only about 3 miles from where we live. So sometimes we'd carpool, other times I'd just hop on the bus ($1.35 and 15 minutes later I'd be at work). But I just got tired of it. We saved some money sharing a car for a while, but I could afford the new car, and frankly for as hard as I've been working, I felt like I owed it to myself to get a new one. Plus the wife will be working in the Tenleytown area effective Sept 1, so the timing was just right.
