PhilosipherStoned Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I see a new car in my future at some point. Definitely not feeling any of those. I may have it narrowed down to the makes I want if I go to a dealer..Either Dodge or Cadillac/ but I might just look for something someones trying to get rid of and fix it up a bit.. Depends if I can find anything like that I like when I'm looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnight Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 It has to be a SUV. I am too tall for standard cars. I haven't ridden in a car in a very long time. I think the Ford Escape is nice. Not digging the new Dodge's. Chevrolet is shit. Cadillac is garbage. I say that because I've owned Chevy and Cadillac. Jeep is something to look into. Kia and Subaru also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which one? The Cherokee T-Hawk or the Gladiator I mentioned? I've put 77k on my '14 Trailhawk and it's done splendidly, I've driven it to Tahoe and back three times. Was doing weekly trips to Fresno a couple years back and it was great. It's been far smoother than any other XUV I've ever had and it has far better capability. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobdog Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Grand Cherokees are a different beast. Honestly, I don't see much need for them unless you're looking for more of a luxury vehicle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilosipherStoned Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I'd be the same way especially if I felt I needed a new vehicle.. I miss my impala honestly. chevy cars always look nice, and I've never had any issues with them so I might go that route. If I was in a bigger area I'd search through lemons and call it a day, but I don't think this place has much to offer in that department anyway.. Most of the nicer vehicles that people are selling are trucks, and suvs from what I've seen. Good old Texas.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
