I drive a 2007 Hyundai NF Sonata. It’s a white, mid-sized, 4-door sedan and has an automatic transmission. I’ve owned this vehicle for two years now and it hasn’t given me any trouble so far. I used to drive a compact car, but my wife and I started to need more space in our car as we had our second baby.

That’s why I bought this vehicle. My vehicle has pretty good fuel efficiency, but I try to drive economically. I thought of buying a larger vehicle or an SUV, but considering how high gas prices have become, I think my Sonata was a good decision. In fact, I wouldn’t mind buying a hybrid car someday to save more money on fuel costs. But for the time being, I’m fine with my car although it’s nothing luxurious. I don’t plan to change my car at least for three or four years.
