#19, I've been discouraging her from getting one. Mainly because she says she doesn't like crossovers, and wants a real car instead.
She's also been considering a late-model Elantra, since she likes mine and also had good luck with the 2010 model she had a few years ago. |

#23, She wouldn't get a BMW. She knows someone who had an E92 3 series, and the parts prices and relative unreliability put her off. |

#24, As someone who had an E90 in the family, and a Mini, I would agree with this sentiment. |

#26, I second this, as far as practicality and value for money goes. I would say anything from them since 2014-2015 should be a good bet. What about a Kia Soul, as far as ease of entry/exit? |

She wants something newer than the Buick (which is a 2015) and it can't be over $20k. Mileage had to be somewhere under 50k, at least, and it has to be comfortable. She hates "chintzy" interiors. |

#29, I haven't experienced any recent Mazdas, but I did enjoy the interior of my dad's Mazda 3. |

#31, Traveling a bit isn't too much of an issue; she bought her current secondary vehicle (2009 Dodge Ram) in Mobile, and her last three vehicles before that (including the Buick) in Jackson. |

She traded it today, and ended up breaking her price limit: She got a new white 2020 Nissan Altima base model. Apparently with a hefty rebate and her decent credit, she got monthly payments where she wanted them.
I drove it a little while ago. Seems okay, oddly similar to my Elantra, except a little bigger, less raucous, and with softer and less bolstered seats. |

ah shit. :( I hope it works out for her. I don't really like Altimas. Nissan lost its stride about a decade ago, IMO but some of their newer cars are nice. I like the Kicks, but its underpowered as shit :(
I could write a book on my disdain for post-2007 Altimas but they're fine cars for people who simply want a car. |

#36, I've had a pretty negative opinion on Nissans in general, after my POS Sentra that I had for only a year.
...that did change a bit, however, when I drove my dad's Murano Platinum... my God it's still the nicest vehicle I've ever driven. The tech, the comfort, the interior materials quality. Though, I realize Nissan probably puts more effort into their profit-heavy crossovers rather than sedans... and, yeah, with Platinum trim, you certainly get what you pay for. |

I will say that the 1995-1999 Nissan Maxima and its corporate rebadge are damn nice cars. :D Especially for a straight up trade in exchange of a 2004 Accord with nearly 300k on it. |
