All right, that's fine. That was around the ballpark of an answer I was thinking about as well.

Anyone knowledgeable about cars here? Thinking about getting a new one since my current one is falling apart (engine stalls every time I go through a puddle 1/2 an inch thick), currently between the Mazda 3 and the Hyundai Elantra. Have yet to test drive either, but based on the specs they seem like the best cars for my preferences (4 door, good gas mileage, ideally Bluetooth connectable)

I've got a 2005 Hyundai Elantra and I absolutely love it. Amazing on gas and very good in bad weather. If I were you I would pick Hyundai. Mazda's don't have a great reputation for being a good reliable car

Cool thanks! Several people I know recently got Hyundai's and seem pretty happy with them, but I read a Consumer Reports article yesterday which said the Mazda 3 was a good pick, thus my confusion, but appreciate the input! Especially with the weather thing, we've had a lot of snow this year and my car doesn't do well in it. 3 different times one night I had to make 3 different attempts at different hills. Then half a mile away from home I skidded off the side of the road and got stuck in a snow bank. But that's a different story!

Yeah I feel very comfortable driving in the snow or heavy rain with my car. Iv'e had it since 2010 and it has barely given me any issues. One day when I look to buy a new car I will deff look into Hyundais

You also want to make sure there is a dealer near you to get it serviced at.

My brother has a Hyundai, and it's been a pretty reliable vehicle. I've looked at both the Elantra and Sonata some for myself. They seem like pretty good cars.

Yeah there are a bunch of dealers all over the area within 10-20 minutes of my house so it's not a problem, but good advice!

Not really, just new so probably a 2013/2014. I'm tired of used cars, keep running into problems with them.

Really cool man! Can't wait to get mine in a year or two. Quick question, how much did the guy charge you for it? That's about the size I want my tattoo

It depends on the place you go to and the artist you use. I went to a few places that said $500, a few that said $300, and I went with an artist who said $300 (which included a $50 appointment deposit, so I paid $250 last night). An artist at the same place told me last year $500.
