My sister is in the process of trading in her 2,004 Kia Spectra. I thought that almost anything would be better than my Forester, but I am learning that just is not true.

The first time that I bought a Focus off of my father I drove my brother-in-law's Focus and it scared me. I had an extremely difficult time believing that it had anything in common with my car. It wore out, she bought a big SUV for her two sons, and he started driving her Kia.

Well, now it is falling apart. Five years newer, smaller frontal area, smaller engine, FWD, a manual transmission, and it is only rated 22/29.

I have enough drama in my life!
