  Hi, I also need some advice about choosing a car.  My problem
is that I can never decide what I want.  Can anyone give me
suggestions and comments on the following?

  a)  Civic :  is the 1.3l engine too small?  Are the dealers still
      gouging?
  b)  Ford Escort :  new ones with the 1.9l engine, anyone have one?
  c)  Chevy S-10 : the base model

  I think that's all.  I think the next thing I should do is go down
to the dealers, but I want to know some opinions of other consumers
before listening to the sales pitches...  Thanks!
