itsnotmydaddys August 18th, 2005, 08:21 PM I know this off the topic alot but u trust everyones opinions on LVC.
Heres the deal, my mom currently owns a 02 ford sport trac and is GIVING it to my twin (BS, but im not gonna get into that) for a "family" company vehicle. So now shes gonna need a car.
SHE WANTS:
4 door car
good gas mileage
seat 3 men over 6'4
"low" mileage
something good for a car seat (nephew)
nice, solid car
Price:
shes trading my brothers 97 ford probe with 60000 miles on it, in fair condition, some bpdy work (bro. bad driver). shes hoping to get around 3k for it, and is looking to spend aound 6k out of pocket. so roughly around 7k-10k
im trying to think of something nice that she can get, i dont want my mom to be riding around in a bucket u know. she deserves something nice.
please give some ideas.
Lincolnpimpin August 18th, 2005, 08:27 PM Just throwing it out there maybe a Ford Escape?
Or hell 97 Continental my mom is 52 and she loved my continental. only around 8,000
GrayGhost1 August 18th, 2005, 08:33 PM How about an early model V6 LS?
itsnotmydaddys August 18th, 2005, 08:37 PM gas mileage on an ls is too low, shes looking for like an accord 4 banger :(, trust me ive tried to have her get an ls.
GrayGhost1 August 18th, 2005, 08:48 PM gas mileage on an ls is too low, shes looking for like an accord 4 banger :(, trust me ive tried to have her get an ls.
Well, there you have it. A Honda Accord it is!
itsnotmydaddys August 18th, 2005, 09:01 PM has anyone had an olds intrigue. i was thinking about one of em. i found one for 8500 with 66000 on it.
lexdiamondz10304 August 18th, 2005, 09:11 PM An LS v-6!!!!!!, if it still does not work id suggest something like a 2000 infinity I30. They usually run for 10k.
brentalan August 18th, 2005, 10:25 PM The 4-cyl Malibu gets 35mpg hwy and very good reliability ratings.
bigdog1279 August 19th, 2005, 08:42 AM you could get a 2003 or 04 impalla from a rental car company with like 20,000 or 30,000 miles on it for 10,000 dollars and that get like 30 miles to the gallon on the highway i think

Yeah, those are actually quite underrated albeit boring as hell...
ohioLS August 19th, 2005, 08:59 AM Mazada 6

2001LS8Sport August 19th, 2005, 09:22 AM All this makes me ill....
I would truly ask her if a couple of miles per gallon is really worth not having something as nice as an LS or equivilant.

:I :Bang
How about:
Mazda 6i
Ford Fungus (focus)
Ford Taurus
Cadillac catera
Pontiac Grand AM or Grand Prix
Dutch August 19th, 2005, 09:31 PM Most of the cars mentioned will NOT fit 3 6'4 guys. That's a short list:
Crown Vic
Grandma Marquis
Town Car
Taurus
Sable
Continental
Intrepid
300M
Concorde
LHS
Impala
Park Avenue
Le Sabre
You should be able to find any one of those used and in the budget. No Jap car will fit 3 big guys comfortably.
itsnotmydaddys August 20th, 2005, 05:13 PM umm sorry to say guys, i came home today and there was moms new car. what was u may be wondering. hmm... an ls, an olds.... wrong its a DAMN for taurus stationwagon. yep thats right she went out by herself and got a stationwagon. but shes really happy so i guess thats all taht matters
