PICKING THE PERFECT RIDE Buying a vehicle is like buying a pair of shoes: it is important to find the right "fit" for your needs, along with features to help you stay as comfortable and safe as possible. When you are ready to buy a vehicle, ask yourself these questions: X Can I get in and out easily? X Can I easily adjust the seat, seat belt, and steering wheel so I am in the best possible position for safe driving? X Does it have technology, like blind spot alerts and lane departure assistance that can help me drive more safely? X Will the technology help prevent crashes or minimize the risk of injury to me and my passengers if I am in a crash? X Does my budget or my concern for the environment impact the type of vehicle I want to buy?
