Digital Malevolence I don't like in a city or populated area. The closest train station is 18 miles away, closest bus station is 6 miles, and taxies are way over priced. I have no use for public transportation, but a need for personal vehicles. Yet, I have none. emo Same. I live in a tiny town in the Southern US. We HAVE a transportation system, but NOWHERE TO GO!!!!! Seriously, the only things you can do for entertainment in this cultural wasteland is go eat somewhere (yeah, right) or go see a crappy movie. :/

Now I have $2300 saved up, I'm just going to shoot for about 2-3 hundred more then I should be able to buy something fairly decent. @ Millenium Joker: Pretty much the same here, except my town is one of the biggest in New England, though there isn't anything to do, or anywhere to go.

Example: I bought my 96 Thunderbird for $800. The Kelley Blue Book prices it at being worth AT LEAST $2800. My buddy, for only $600, bought a 1964 Chevy Impala. Yeah, it needs a little work, but it's only MAYBE another $1000 worth in parts, and that's stretching it big time. If you look hard enough, you can find something for a great price. My advice? Buy form Mexicans in the ghetto. It's where I bought Maria (Thunderbird) and she's served me well since then. She only have 160000 miles on her. Considering I drive her 45 miles a day and she's about 14 years old, that's not too bad.

Considering I drive her 45 miles a day and she's about 14 years old, that's not too bad. If I bought a guitar, I'd end up selling it, and then I'd buy something better and more interesting than an over-used six stringed instrument. anyways though, I don't want a piece of s**t car thats been beaten to hell from some mexicans in the projects. I'm not saying all mexicans treat cars bad, just the ones who come to the U.S. and live in the projects. Actually, 90% of the people who own cars in the projects dont know how to take care of vehicles and destroy cars that could easily get 200,000 miles but because of ill use only get 150,000 before shitting out. Thanks for the advice, but I think I'm not going to follow it. I want a car that will last me quite a while, I get attached to the things I own and like to hold onto them as long as I can. A $2500 will generally last a lot longer than an $800 one. Usually theres a reason the car is so low in value, if its only because it needs a new transmission or something like that, then thats a bit different. However, I really don't feel like fixing up a car before I can drive it, I tried that with the last cars I had but I just never got around to it. I need something reliable from the start, then when I get a liking for it, fixing it will be no problem at all, and be much more enjoyable. 3nodding I'm pretty set on that.
