looking to get a new(to me) ride

[aimone 4]

ok so im about to start a new job. im gonna find a dealership havin a good sale, ya know zero down or close to it and the first months payment. im looking to get something small hatchback or suv. and i'm not getting something new just new to me and newer that my 76 caprice. and alot better on gas lol.....

so i'm just Indecisive and thats why im asking what you guys think i should get. i had a 91 civic hatch a few yrs back and loved it. but the downside is i cant spit without hitting a civic around here, plus ppl be jacking and stripping them with a quickness.

i'm also leaning towards an s-10 blazer with the 4.3L, older box model, i just dont wanna have to spend the money to stop the nasty roof flex those have with a system

but then im leanin towards an astro van. have room to get loud and still have passenger room. another plus to an astro is its a minivan so cops wont dick with me as bad.

i dunno what would you guys recommend 80's to early 90's w/out a trunk with spl potential while maintaining good gas mileage

focus. 38mpg on the highway, room in the trunk for an 18" sundown nightshade and a stock electrical system good enough to support the saz1500 powering it. never breaks even while i drive the shit out of it always.

i have a 2000 subaru outback. plenty of room and has good gas milage the only thing about it i dont like is does not have very good stock electrical. may be a good option for you if you have the money to upgrade its electrical

focus sounds nice especially the electrical but im a chevy guy lol . . . . subarus tend to be expensive dont they?

yeah they are. ive seen what i have used for up to 8 grand but also as low as $700, it just depends of the quality you want.

Get a saturn. F-ing bulletproof, GM makes 'em since you're a chevy guy, and they get fantastic gas mileage. Oh, and they are cheap as hell, up front and on insurance, and they have a surprisingly large following, check out sixthsphere.

I have seen a few Saturns with less then desirable durability.

No ext cab pick ups?

[aimone 4]

maybe an s15 ext cab i found for $1200 mint cond. old man owned since new.

or a 90' nissan 240sx coupe great cond. for $1200

my dad found a 00' honda dunno if its a civic or accord for the same price the girl bought a brand new car and just wants it out of her driveway

screw saturns man there basically made of plastic. most models. and 90% are ugly. but thanks for the input
