School has ended, and now you’ve had a solid month or so to land that new career. We’re going to assume that was more than enough time to find your dream entry-level job. And now that you have had plenty of time to settle in to your new gig, you must be looking for a new car to buy with your newly obtained paycheck. You’re an adult now, and you’ll have a whole new set of responsibilities to account for. You’ll want to find the right car for the right price to accommodate your needs.

Are Convertibles Worth the Safety Risk?
Yesterday we drove Highway 1 in California from San Simeon to Monterey. This is the most beautiful segment of the most beautiful road in America, but one thing started driving me crazy:
One in ten cars that passed in the opposite direction was either a red convertible Camaro or Mustang. That’s no exaggeration. I don’t know if there’s either a rental place that specializes in outfitting people with red convertibles or if people with red convertibles just like driving the 1, but it got to the point of being ridiculous. Every minute or two someone in the family announced the sighting of yet another convertible Mustang.
Without question, we have entered the season of convertibles. Warm weather brings dropped tops, messy hair, sunburned foreheads, and sun-bleached interiors.
Highway 1: Where the Magic Happens
My wife said it best:
“It’s like holding hands with the ocean.”
Driving Highway 1 from Los Angeles to San Francisco is one of those drives every human living in the United States needs to take at least once. The expansive ocean views, jagged cliffs, and exotic supercars make the drive an unforgettable experience.
I just wish my GPS would let me stay on it.
The Case for Car Brokers
Even rich people love to save money.
There are some people in this world who could walk into any car dealership they want and write a check for any car on the floor.
Sometimes, though, they just don’t have the time to spend at the dealer and go through the hours-long process of buying a car.
For those people, and for regular car buyers like you and me, auto brokers can be a true blessing.
