Jetta vs Elantra vs Santa Fe

So a month after my accident I purchased a 2008 Jetta. I never thought of buying a Volkswagen until I had to switch out my Dodge Advantage for a Volkswagen Jetta. The heated seats got me and I was hooked. Not to mention the ability to make a U turn so easily. So I went online shopping thought of the Hyundai Elantra, then back to the Santa Fe and then Jetta. I finally found three Jetta's to look at Garden Grove Volkswagen and made an appointment with Anya - she is amazing. Saw them on Friday night and picked my 2nd choice. My last choice was sold. My first choice had more miles than my second choice and was a couple of thousand more. Explanation...my second choice had been on the lot longer. I picked it up on Saturday afternoon. Drove around did some errands saw an amazing Cypress Stake Roadshow and then drove to Pacific Beach Ward on Sunday morning. Coming home from church - Check Engine Light came on. No worries it is certified and I dropped it off at the dealership down the street from my office. However, I was unable to rent a car because I lost my credit card a week or so ago with my license. So they fixed as much as they could a part comes in tomorrow morning and I will be good to go. I have to drive carefull over bumps and pot holes since it is a fuel line connector. So I will be careful. So I still love my new Jetta (new to me of course). I miss my Santa Fe...as I was trying to determine if that was the right choice there I was talking to Lisa sitting in my rental Jetta with my seat warmer on and a Santa Fe right in front of me. Yes, I had some great times in both my Santa Fe's and a lot of great trips but I think it is time for a change.
