[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My college kid has a Ford Focus. [b]I think you may have marital issues rather than car issues. [/b][/quote]

+1 The issue ain't the car, OP.  [/quote]

Yeah, but other than continue to say no, what else do I do?  Everyone who says a Honda, Toyota, etc.  I absolutely agree. Y'all are preachin' to the choir.  The Volvo I bought used in 2015 for $14K and it was for me and DD to share.  DW could took around in whatever fancy car she wanted.  Frankly, I just want to keep the Volvo until she graduates or even for myself. Get her a Hyundai with a 5 year warranty.  I just cannot stand the conflict and drama DW is creating over this and there must be some sort of mental blockage for her not to budge or even consider actual logic, providing IIHS lists, etc.  Nope. Nope. Nope.  She wants the MB!  :roll:

What is this about?  To her, me not listening to her!  Not listening to her and not apologizing for not listening to her b/c 3 years ago I bought the Volvo rather than a MB GLK.  :roll: [/quote]

Seriously, WHY does your DW want the MB? Just the name?

She clearly knows nothing about car performance based on her pick of car for your daughter--that isn't even a fun MB to drive, and you're looking at a lot of reliability issues sooner rather than later. And she's not choosing the safest car in the event of a crash or bad weather driving or anything like that, either.[/quote]
