My cousin is going to get me a new car and told me to pick one out. That's the problem, there's too many cars out there, I can't make up my mind about which one to get. I want something that has the speed, but don't burn through the gas. Maybe someone can give me an idea about what type to get.

baby...it all depends on your lifestyle....

Do you have kids? Do you need room for camping gear? What will the vehicle mostly be used for? Do you need 4 wheel drive? etc.etc.etc.

you need to choose something you can use year round and fits your lifestyle.

I have a motorcycle and a pick up truck

they are good for me maybe not so much for you

look at your driving conditions and lifestyle and be smart about it

I love motorcycles, but sadly enough if I get one, I'll only be able to rock it for about two months. Stuck in an area that has winter. :tongue: grumble :tongue: laugh

Try something like a mazda. I have a mazda protege. Had it for about 5 years now and never had anything wrong with it. The most i had to do is get new tires, but of course you have to for every car. And theyre good on gas. lol.

yeah I looked at a new altima for the hell of it they are pretty nice and drive pretty good to. plus you cant beat the foreign engineering. Dont get me wrong I love my mustang and my F150 but between the v8 in the stand and the 35's on the truck the best gas mileage I get is about 17 on the highway haha

Go for a hybrid. You get great mileage with a Prius and in some states you also get to ride in the carpool lane without the minimum number of people!drinker

I want a truck, but they do burn through diesel all nothing. I like my Powerstroke, but I keep getting pulled over in town for noise violations. lol.

Like my cousin's really going to get me an eclipse. may as well ask him if he can get me a corvette or a viper. laugh
