We looked at a bunch of cars. Many of the SUVs were too tall. She had to climb up into them.

We looked at one Toyota Altima Limited that was a nice car. We asked for a sales brochure and the hard sell began. "What will it take to get you into this car." We wasted some time just wanting a brochure and he made an offer that was just one grand off sticker, and 2 grand less than her car is worth as a trade. We just walked out.

In the end her old Mercedes looked even better. I adjusted the seat to be a little higher and that helped.

I also discovered her car is actually a 2002 C240, 46,000 miles. I suspect she will keep it for a while.
