Hmmmmm still debating, I really really really really want the RAV4, but I have no patience.... but then again is it worth the wait. I think it might be, I can't get this decision out of my head. If we are well enough, we still might go to Honda and check the Honda's out in Tauranga tomorrow, Honda Rotorua have offered us the two cars we are looking at for overnight testing, on Monday and Tuesday night.
Anyway today's plans, try and fix the bathroom plug, we have one of those pop up ones, and it's jammed down whoops..... tried nearly every trick I have learn't from youtube, but it's really jammed double whoops.
David came home from work early yesterday and staying home today, I am still sick... but better.
I am thinking I may wait for the RAV4, I think I will regret it otherwise.... but will see after we have checked out the Honda's decisions decisions....
Wonder if Isaac will be going to school today...... I am keeping out of it now......
Anyway back later...
I am now considering getting a RAV4 2025 model..... most of them have 20,000 - 30,000 kms and are about $6000 - $8000 cheaper than the 2026 model, but at least it is available now.
Isaac got to school ok, well not ok, cried but at least he went.
Ok no go for a 2025 RAV4, to many things missing from the 2026 models for a small price difference.
David and I took two cars for a test drive, one being the Hinda ZR-V Hybrid LX and the other being the Honda CR-V Hybrid X both 2026 models, we loved the both but the CR-V Hybrid X was more comfortable, and not quite so loud.... now to research the pros and cons of both and make a decision next week.
If you have the choice please consider a full electric car. You plug it in at home and never have to fill up again. We have a Tesla but there are so many amazing electric cars now that look like ordinary cars (unlike Teslas which are very distinctive). There are virtually no maintenance costs of an electric car other than tyres and wiper blades. Seriously, it's the way to go... check them out.
ReplyDeleteYeah my son has a tesla but I am not into full electric cars right now.... I just don't want to be caught somewhere and run out of power, or sit and wait at a charging station - they scare the shit out of me lol
DeleteIt just never happens Jaxx... You get around 500 kms on the newer cars and you almost always charge at home. Charging stations now only take max 20 minutes. Stu drives over to Whitianga from Auckland, does a quick top up at New World and that's enough to easily get home. I understand your worries though but we've just never had an issue.
DeleteYes, I agree with Lynda....Peta
