PRD2BDF Posted January 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Too much road noise? Actually, yes. Plus you sit on the car rather IN the car. I didn't like that. When the seat is adjusted for me, I couldn't sit behind myself in the back. In my Saab, I could CROSS my legs sitting behind myself. So now I'm just clueless, I do want the next car to be practical. I often hauled 8-10 feet long lumber in the Saab and the trunk still closed. I've hauled 10 bags of mulch in the trunk and it still closed. I suppose the next thing is to see what visually interests me because if I don't like the looks, I'm not interested. EDIT: I'm kinda interested in the Volkswagen Golf Alltrack, a dealer has a new one for 26k and it does look pretty cool. The Subaru Outback does look sharp but I don't know if it'll be absolutely anemic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 Hmmm.....have you looked into another Saab? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ODoyle Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 Dude at my last job daily drove a red Allente, it was pretty minty. Most interesting thing about those I think is that they were built by Pininfarina. That is the GM, Todd...Now he Drives a Challenger GT :lolguy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will be filling it up with fuel every couple days. Any cheap daily driver that's going to be worth a darn for what you want is going to be border line/cheap/boring. Seriously, go drive a Passat. You can get brand new ones or even a slightly used one for very cheap and they come with 99% of the stuff you want at a decent price. 600-700+ miles on a tank of fuel (18.5gal). My drive is longer than I like and I can tell you $40 a week vs $80+ a week adds up. If you are looking at any of those SUV's, that number goes to $60-120+ in just fuel per week. Pay cash for the car, and save on the fuel. Don't end up one of those people paying as much (or more) in fuel than your car payment every month... :fuuuu: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC K9 Posted February 6, 2018 Report Share Posted February 6, 2018 GTS-4? https://www.japaneseclassics.com/vehicle/1991-r32-skyline-gts-4/ I just spent entirely too much time looking at those cars. And now I want a 1992 Nissan Gloria GT Ultima. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
