Wow. I only spent $940 on my first car.

  lol, what did you get? I dont want to spend the full 24K but thats just how much i have to spend... I have heard Dodge Neons are crap but are reliable, but I'd like an SUV


 

 I have a Sunbird. Neons are actually pretty good, I know a few people that have them. A Tahoe is a splendid SUV.


Neons are NOT good and Tahoes are good if you don't roll them(inside joke).

What do you think is wrong with Neons?

I dont understand having an SUV for a commuter vehicle, especially if you are never going to use it. Sure, you might haul something once every few months, but thats it.

Get a large sedan, or a crossover.

Thats just my personal bias though. It sounds like you already have your mind made up.

Some people just like to have them as they like to feel like they Control the road, imo i wouldn't go for it but others are different.

Dude. Crossovers are just as bad. I figure, first cars should always be a shitty older Escort. Lets keep the novices out of the hands of 5,000lb. Suburbans plz.

I know a few people that have had them for years and never had a problem. They get good gas and my friend had hers doing 110 mph down the highway a few times. I think they're pretty nice. Especially for a first car.

That your personal experience im talking from a whole.

Every car will have quite a few reliable ones because the people know how to look after it like servicing regularly and such.

I mean my dad got 250k miles out of hes 1998 Toyota Townace Van with Only 1 oil change everything original from clutch to brakes to filters. It was running a bit iffy but that in my opinion is reliability without question.

She actually beats the hell out of that car. And I'm not even talking about just hers. I've never really heard anything bad about them.

Most people I know, including myself, have not heard much good about them.

Only good things come from the SRT4 version, and only because it is easily moddable and fast.  Not reliable.  Nor would it be a good first car.

I agree he should have a shitty older beat up car, but at least crossovers get gas millage, and makes you look like a little less douchebag.

The Taurus is a solid car, and I kind of like the new ones. I would go for that, especially if you will be buying your own gas.

Do you NEED an Eddie Bauer Explorer? My XLT has almost all the same features as the Eddie, just no trip computer... Look at carmax is my suggestion... Tahoe's and Suburbans are extremely durable too(too bad they don't offer Diesel models anymore even though duramax now sucks! )
