i woud take a truck but i want kinda want somethingsmall and quick

the main reason i said an early 90's full size truck is because of the availability of parts. 350's, 302's and available at literally any junk yard, and they are very reliable motors. And they can go plenty quick, which shouldnt really be one of your concerns.

I can pull a 3000 lb boat 75 - 80 mph anywhere I want to go and still get 12 - 13 mpg. If I hook up the same boat to my 2001 s-10, I struggle to hold 60, and go from close to 30 mpg, down to about 14.

You should really consider gettinga Honda... they are really good on gas... also they are a pretty trustworthy vehicle.. i had a 94 honda as my first car and i wouldnt trade it for the world...

Gas wise the Kia Rio is good too

my brothers probe was always having problems with it. like the tranny, and the clutch(it was a manual) so he had to get a whole new clutch. he also had other problems with like the alternador belt. i cant remember wut all was wrong. but i know he had quite a few problems

get a beater truck and do that beater around

If you are into hunting,dirtbikeing,fourwheeler get a truck most of my friends have car and they hate them. I have a 96 f-150 4x4 and i can't even rember how many times i have used the 4x4. But if gas is a issue do get any a v8 truck. You can buy a ford ranger v6 or 4 banger pretty cheap. Good luck finding a vechicle don't chose to quick

if you really want to save money get an old junker and fix it up

I just bought a 95 civic, rebulit V-TECH, strut stabalizer bar, cold air intake, short shift and euro lights for under 3000 Canadian. I reccomend hondas all the way. Afforable, tough and parts are cheap. An accord would be perfect, here in Nova Scotia the Accords have almost no resale value and a good one can be bought dirt cheap.
