2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo

I purchased the 2001 Monte Carlo shortly after the 9/11 incident and it turned out to be one of my best auto purchases ever. I didn't set out to buy another Chevy, and when I took a test drive in the Monte Carlo, I was sold.

It's big and roomy inside. My co-workers and friends always compliment me on how nice the car is - both inside and out. One of the nice features of Chevrolet cars is that they are simple. Without making all of the gadgets, bells and whistles standard fare, the manufacturer is able to pass the savings onto the consumer.

The backseats are very comfortable, simple, aerodynamic features are found all over the interior and exterior of the car. The big roomy trunk comes in very handy for luggage.

Because the car has a long chassis, it's good for long road trips. I took the car out to San Francisco last winter (a 7 1/2 hour ride) and didn't feel cramped or restricted whatsoever.
