Looking for a car w/ superior gas mileage.  "In the future."

POC... The Chevy version of your dream car. The 88 Caprice. My dad had one for about 10 years. The wagon looks almost the same as the one in your pic. Its also a highly sought after car around here for modding it to "ghetto cruiser".

Yeah I love Caprices too, but the Mercury's have a better interior and exterior. The Chevy has the better powertrain though, those Ford AOD trannies are piles of shit.

Guys it's official. I just bought a Kia Soul.

Ah, I see the big selling point for you was a car that expressed your fascination with being a sissycuck.

Whoa, dude. That was uncalled for. No need for personal attacks.

Maybe he thought there'd be dancing hamsters in the car?

Edit: In all seriousness, though, Kias are not a bad choice, but I hope you bought one from a reputable dealer and got it inspected shortly afterwards. Kias are not the most reliable cars out there.

Will you please respect other people's purchases Jimmy? No need on being such a rude little dickfuck ok?

*To Comrade Major* I did get the Kia from a reputable dealer and yes it got inspected too. Haggle-free too! I don't want to go through the haggle shit. I wasn't aware of the commercial w/ the hamsters until now.

There is an old saying that goes something like "The best car there is, is the one you have...".
It isn't as simple as it sounds... Everything could be better just as everything could be worse... I generally think of life as "Everything could be different."

Anyway, glad you got a car... because it is "the one you have", I am sure you will enjoy it no matter what, because "anything could be different."

A public forum probably isn't the best place for suggestions/discussions on what might be a best automobile however... but again, I am glad you have tolerable, functional transportation. After all, isn't that the primary purpose of an automobile anyway?

I post an image conveying my entertainment towards the situation, and I get downvoted and called uncivil? Hah!

I have a spine, I use it.

Don't be such a pussy.

Honestly though, if you wanted a car like that the Soul is easily the best choice. The Scion xB is...a Scion, and the Nissan Cube is just fuckin' retarded. My friend has a Soul and it's not a bad car. It's very well put together, looks nice inside and out, and drives well. The Koreans actually give a shit, they make much better cars than the Japs. Not my cup of tea though, I require an open cockpit V8 with a stick shift. Seriously, daily driving a convertible is the greatest thing on the fuckin' planet. I'd never settle for anything else at this point.

What year is it and how many miles are on it?

I had a '95 Geo Metro from late 1994 to early 2004: The paint flaked off the wheels after a few years (cheap to fix), the door moldings started peeling off (cheap to fix, still have the 3M double-sided tape after all these years), the 1st gear synchro ate a bag of dicks (expensive, but not as much as buying another car), mileage dropped from 45 to 35 mpg despite regular oil changes, then it started rusting really bad around the 8th year. After 9 years I traded it in for a 2004 Honda Civic, which I still have 11 years later.

Those were the only 2 new cars I've ever owned, and drove them for 20 years total, so far.

My Civic is getting more and more rust (I'm in New England, and hit the car wash a few times a month during the winter), the heatshield rusted off the exhaust manifold recently, the rear defogger hasn't worked the last few years, and the hood release handle just broke off. I'd read that happens around 150k miles (I've got 175k) so I just threw a small pair of pliers in the glovebox.

I'll probably have to trade it in in another year or two, but I'm not sure what I'll get. Something that gets 40+ miles per gallon and has a manual transmission.

If I ever get enough cash to buy a used car, I want it to be a first or second generation Grand Marquis. They're reliable, and drive as smooth as glass. They look classy as fuck too.
