Long term solution or quick decision?

Being a person a bit over 30, I had never owned my own car. There were family cars, friends' cars, rentals, occasional  cars from the companies where I was working, though never in life had I owned a car.

Life is full of surprises, so circumstances are pushing me to buy a car. Finally!
After analyzing the market, I've decided that only two options would work for me:
- Buy an old fellow, drive it for a few years, change to a new car for long-long time.
- Take over somebody's lease for a year or two, follow the second part of option 1.
If everything is pretty clear with urgent solutions for tomorrow, getting a new car is more interesting.
I am an environmentally friendly person and the one, who looks a few steps ahead. A car for me is more than just a vehicle. I don't want to get a lease for 3 or 5 years, but would prefer to buy a brand new car and use it for at least 10 years (unless I would need a different type of vehicle later on).
So I try to imagine myself 10 years from now, on the same car. Definitely, gasoline doesn't sound catchy if outside is 2027. Ideally, I would buy a Toyota Mirai and keep my fingers crossed for hydrogen "gas stations" in the areas where I live and travel. Realistically, considering an electric car makes more sense.
Also, I like the concept of hybrid cars. I'd say that hybrid suites me more, since I cannot guarantee charging the battery on time (my cellphone is a great example).
Since none of my friends own a hybrid car and rental companies still treat it as exotics, my knowledge is based only on some random articles. I really like the Toyota Prius in hybrid version. Keep thinking about 10 years from now - would a hybrid engine last for that long? Would anyone at all drive cars that consume gasoline in 2027?
I would really  like to hear opinions about this.
By the way, 2016 BMW 528 review is almost ready to be posted. Thinking to add a mobile review to this blog ;) Stay tuned.

Housewife Car Review:2017 KIA Sorento

Finally, I got a new toy for the weekend. This time Enterprise provided me with a 2017 KIA Sorento. We had a busy schedule and I didn't have enough time to go through the dashboard and all its features. Nevertheless, 300 km in two days is good enough to get an opinion about this car.
In terms of driving, in my rating it is on the second place after Lexus IS250. That Lexus is being missed a lot =) But let's go back to Sorento.

Housewife's Car Review: 2016 Hyundai Veloster

This one will be about the strangest car I ever drove. Just a week before I got it from a rental company, my daughter mentioned that she had a ride on a car with three doors. That didn't sound right, but a week later I was driving a 3 door, four seat car. 

The 2016 Hyundai Veloster is an excellent city car! It has one door on the driver's side and two on the other. It has a "panoramic sunroof" which actually means a transparent roof turning into a rear window. It makes the view from the back mirror a bit weird. 

Housewife's Car Review: 2016 Fiat 500c

Today I will talk about my recent experience with a Fiat 500c.
I needed a car urgently, but instead of getting a compact sedan (Toyota Yaris equivalent), I got a convertible Fiat 500c. Actually, "convertible" was Discount's excuse for the downgrade without money compensation. 
It is a tiny, funny and fancy model, and surprisingly it is still a car. Easy to park, opening the roof is extremely cute, could be a nice car for someone driving in downtown Toronto (or somewhere in California). It's really a two-seater even though it has two more at the back. Those seats are more suitable for a purse than for a person. Even my child refused to sit there and occupied a front seat. It has a trunk, but the size is almost the same as a glove box in crossovers.

Housewife's Car Review: 2016 Dodge Journey R/T

Woo-hoo! It is time for a new review. Just a quick reminder – my reviews are very subjective, I just share a personal experience with different cars that I happened to drive.
Last weekend I got Dodge Journey R/T 2016– a crossover designed by Fiat-Chrysler.
3.6 L engine, AWD, 7 seats.

Housewife's Car Review: 2015 Nissan Pathfinder

We had great 3 days and 375 kilometers together. Pathfinder is an excellent car for travel, camping, going far with a lot of people (it has 7 seats). Alison was sleeping at the back seat as on the couch when it got cold in the tent. Tent, sleeping bags and other stuff were almost invisible in the trunk. 

Housewife's Car Review: 2015 Chevrolet Cruze

This time I got what I was asking for. I mean, guys offered a good car, but I ask for a low gas consumption one. Choice was between Yaris and Cruze. I took Chevy Cruze.
Not a bad car. Had a ride in it before, got the same feeling now - too narrow, space between front seats isn't comfortable. (Actually, same applies to Chevy Volt - I don't like design of the cup holders and else between seats.) Other than that, feels nice on the road, very smooth and sensitive to steering wheel, good performance for a small fellow.
