What do you guys think of the Malibu Maxx? That might be what you are looking for. If you like style you can opt for the SS with the 3.9L V6, and if you want low cost, opt for the base with the 3.5. I think that car would be addiquit even if you see kids in your near future.

Hello all, I made a mistake and bought a 2006 Scion xB. Its a great little car but not for me. Now that I owe so much on a new car the only thing I can afford is a new Ford with the 0% financing going on in my area on 06 models that havent been sold. My dream car has always been the new mustangs. I have a chance to get one of those or go with the safer choice of an 06 Ranger. I had a truck before the scion and I live in Pittsburgh, PA so the truck would be better for the winter and im also a big guy 6'2. I drove the mustang and im not uncomfortable and i freakin love it. What should I do? |

Ready, set, go! (now ducking to avoid all the posts sure to follow) Eric, how much do you owe on the Scion? What are your payments? Do you have any equity? I suspect that the majority of advice you're going to get will be of the type "stick with the Scion until its paid off". We'll see.

Replying to: ericx1021 (Aug 25, 2006 12:45 pm) Put as much cash into the deal as you can possible afford to without going hungry. Finance as short a term as possible too. Friendly advice from some who sees $5K, $7K, $10K, $15K  negative equity on a daily basis.

Hi, I'm in the market currently for a car for a college student, so a little sporty but not too much, reliable, and a good car overall. I have 16,5000 total to spend on the car so that includes sales tax/registration, etc. meaning the selling price should probably be around 15-15k. Any suggestions?
