So I'm looking at new cars...[views:9316][posts:39]_____________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 1:58pm - the_reverend ""] I posted this on the Facebook. But I want: 1) hatchback 2) 38mpg+ 3) navigation system 4) iPad connection/phone/tablet |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 1:59pm - the_reverend ""] I also only want to spend around $22k. Back up cams are a major plus. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 2:00pm - the_reverend ""] I drive the veloster and loved it minus the lack of view around the car. Right now I'm at the Mazda dealership looking at the Mazda 3. |
| _________________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 4:04pm - largefreakatzero ""] VW TDI wagon. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 4:08pm - the_reverend ""] When I looked at the very they wet too pricey for everything. The Mazda 3 hatchback with everything I want sort of doesn't exist... The configuration that would be like $31k... |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 4:10pm - the_reverend ""] I test drove a Ford focus with everything I want ted but it had leather seats and heated seats. 2 things I don't want. There is no way to get everything I want without things I don't. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 4:10pm - the_reverend ""] The Ford focus was $23.4 |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 4:19pm - the_reverend ""] I walked into Toyota and they were like "I don't think many people are making hatchbacks anymore" and then they showed me a sedan... Ugh. |
| __________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 4:57pm - demondave ""] My wife has a ford focus with a ton of extras. Great car but it doesn't seem to match what you are looking for. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 5:03pm - the_reverend ""] Like I said above, I drove one of the with everything I wanted except also heated and leather seats. |
| ________________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 8:29pm - conservationist ""] Get a Volvo. Go full yuppie. |
| _______________________________________________ [Oct 6,2013 10:01pm - illinoisenemaBradness ""] are you one of those idiots that leases cars? |

Leasing is great if you want a new car every three years and to never be responsible for any problems. Sort of like leasing housing, actually. |
| _____________________________ [Oct 7,2013 9:03am - lol ""] Get a new Honda civic fool |
| _________________________________________ [Oct 7,2013 9:20am - largefreakatzero ""] He can't lease with the miles he drives. Leasing is fine if you don't go anywhere. Buy used. |
| __________________________________________________________ [Oct 7,2013 9:35am - Pig Bag of Assorted Nigger Parts ""] Leasing is just like the scene, it doesn't go anywhere. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 7,2013 3:23pm - the_reverend ""] yeah, leasing is dumb... I would be over my lease for 5 years in 1.5years. |

| _________________________________________ [Oct 7,2013 4:25pm - largefreakatzero ""] I'm about to turn 225,000 on my Tundra. I'm shooting for 350,000 before it dies. I bought that thing brand new in 2005. They're close to double the price now. Fuck that shit. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 8,2013 9:49am - the_reverend ""] I might have figured out a way to pass inspection... |

But I want: 1) hatchback 2) 38mpg+ 3) navigation system 4) iPad connection/phone/tablet I don't know which of their vehicles most fits what you're looking for, but Hyundai - in general - is known for good gas mileage, and the longest warranties. I bought a 2011 Accent brand new, I'm up 60,000 miles and it's still functioning almost as good as the day I bought it. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 8,2013 10:17am - the_reverend ""] 60K is nothing... It always amazes me when people are having problems with their cars at 80K-120K miles. I didn't have any issues with my Honda Civic Hybrid until around 175K when the catty needed to be replaced. Then the hybrid batteries went to crap at 270K. I could keep driving it at 330K with just and oil change and maybe spark plugs. But it won't pass inspection cause of the hybrid batteries kicking off a code. I'm trying to drive in a way to keep the batteries topped off. If that works, I might be able to get it to pass inspection once again. |

If that works, I might be able to get it to pass inspection once again. 60k in 2 years, in a subcompact, functioning almost as well as the day I bought it makes me a happy guy so far. I'm hoping it lasts a lot longer than this (obviously). In general, they do have a good reputation, as far as cars lasting. |

| ____________________________________________________ [Oct 8,2013 2:03pm - grilled_dickcheese_sandwich ""] At 60K, a Hyundai will need a new timing chain. Don't fuck with that shit. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 8,2013 2:06pm - the_reverend ""] new batteries are $2K. with 330K miles, putting $2K into a car makes no sense. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Oct 8,2013 2:09pm - grilled_dickcheese_sandwich ""] At 330k, the only thing that makes sense is buying a new car. |
| _________________________________________ [Oct 8,2013 2:29pm - largefreakatzero ""] Yup, time for a new ride. I would still look into used. I don't think I'll ever buy new again. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 8,2013 2:55pm - the_reverend ""] I have a very select set of needs/wants and little time to do it in. |

| __________________________________________ [Oct 8,2013 7:31pm - Sandro Beyer NLI ""] Get a Mini. You'll save on gas mileage and be attractive to both sexes. |

| ______________________________________ [Oct 27,2013 3:39pm - the_reverend ""] So... I'm getting a 2014 Mazda. I was on the way to the dealership and my Honda's electrical system died on me. Still hoping to drive the Honda for 2-3 more days. |
