Whats your next car New or Used? Reply #33 – March 25, 2009, 05:23:51 PM My next vehicle is already in the family. I have nearly convinced my father he really doesnt need his SRT-8 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Then I will just need to keep my 17yr old son out of it. Insurance on his Bird is bad enough. Quote Selected

I'd hate to have something happen 350 miles away. at least for the next couple years I would trailer it until it's broken in the way I like it. I'm gonna drive the out of it around here, Quote Selected

Whats your next car New or Used? Reply #40 – March 25, 2009, 06:45:58 PM I'd like to buy a brand new DD but I think I'm just going to keep my 95 till it dies. It's only got 77,000 on it so it should last a few more years. Plus I like the idea of not having a car payment. I can put that extra $300 or so in the bank every month instead of giving to the bank to pay off a loan Quote Selected
Whats your next car New or Used? Reply #41 – March 25, 2009, 06:48:48 PM In a perfect world: My wife drive's the H3 that she wants. I drive the '29 Ford sedan delivery I want. Both DD's.In a hopeful possibility world: My wife is happy with her Blazer after it's paid off and I drive my Fairlane after I drop a 302/AOD in it or find a totalled early 2000's Lincoln LS for a donor. Both DD's.A realistic world: Wife complains about driving her Blazer w/non-working 4x4, and I continue to drive my py Saturn SC2, (and Jeep GC in the winter) Both current DD's.My next car? Whatever I can find for under $400.And if this weather keeps up: A boat! Quote Selected
Whats your next car New or Used? Reply #42 – March 25, 2009, 07:52:16 PM Quote from: oldraven;263878That's the Saturn Outlook you're thinking about. The Vue is still a (POS) Theta car, and only seats 5. The Vue we have now won't hold two car seats and a booster in the bench row without slamming the doors and having the booster 'shift' a little (we've had the chance to try this out when we take our nephew for the night sometimes). The Outlook/Traverse/Enclave/Acadia are all (awesome) Lambda cars. But I agree, we were looking into the Outlook. I think it looks even better than the Traverse, and the options are pretty much identical, but Saturn is only offering $4000 cash back. Something about that no-dicker-sticker is putting me off too. It depends on who's got the better deal when the time comes to buy, and the fact that there is no Saturn dealer in Antigonish. That shouldn't matter, though, since we bought our Vue in Halifax.*edit*I just did the same pricing scheme with the Outlook, and it's $250 less (before rebates) with bigger wheels, and the delivery allowance is actually $4,000 to $5,000. Hmh. :pAhh yes, the Outlook. I kinda lost track of Saturn after the demise of the only real one, the S-series Don't forget that you're likely to get more for your Vue at a Saturn dealer than you would at a Chevy dealer... assuming there are still Saturn dealers around when you pull the trigger...As for what my next vehicle will be - it'll be whatever I can find for under a grand after I've used the Maxima up...

Whats your next car New or Used? Reply #43 – March 25, 2009, 08:16:44 PM Well my wife will probably be due for the next new vehicle around here. Her '06 Mercury Mariner has almost 80,000 now so we will probably be in the market for something in the next year or so. The Mariner has been a great vehicle. We just put a set of new tires on it last week (yeah almost 80k on the orig. tires) and other than an A/C recharge we have done nothing but change the oil/filter and air filter. To replace it she has been talking about Dodge Chargers. I told her the only way she's doing that is if its an R/T model, and she insists it must be AWD for winter time. I just don't know how I feel about Chrysler products but oh well it her choice. Right now I have a '99 F-150 4x4 for a DD. It currently has around 135k but I plan on trying to run it until 200k as long as she holds together. After it lays down I will probably try to find a Superduty with a Powerstroke as I do a lot of towing/farm cs and could use the extra grunt. Quote Selected
Whats your next car New or Used? Reply #44 – March 25, 2009, 08:51:04 PM i got my "new" "next" car. the mx5. killer on gas milage. i can drive spiritedly and still kill the tbird in MPG. it seems like a tank of gas lasts twice as long and hold half as much. needs brake pads, oil change, and new tires. very pleased with it. plus im not racking up thousands of miles on the bird a month so its WIN WIN for me.
