Depends on a lot, but most importantly I would urge you to buy american if you can do so
@jday1516 Its an all around vehicle. The thing is for that price and year if i choose american i will get a lower quality like Chevys (since 2004 the quality has gone down quite a lot) or a Ford (Fiesta and Ecosport) their quality is mid but maintance is demanding especially in the electronics department and my budget is quite tight and the Mazda 2 is very budget friendly and modifiable
yank cars is a money pit, esspecially fords
The cobalt would be a good pic and they last for ever
give it up for mouse
@jday1516 y Oh. My grandma had a Cobalt. They have the same problem as mid 2000 Hyundai's. Lack of consistence. Since most of them were made in Brasil, colombia and Uzbekistan the quality is very inconsistent. Especially in plastic and the bolts are quite loose. With that car is up to lady luck to decide
Garonteed mada2 will cost you way more in repairs than a Cobalt to each there own but the advice is coming from a auto mechanic just so you know. I seen a few of them last when you Pamper them but compression issues and bad rings are common at 80k also if you buy at 60k make sure they do the 80k services early
@Martin Silva buy a shitbox. They're cheap, easy to work on, and last forever. 350k miles is average on the 4.0 motor till it has issues
Thanks @TheMousez i would look around for a good shitbox like a Kia pop, a Mazda 323. Something like my Daewoo racer (RIP)
@Martin Silva When I say shitbox, I mean a jeep grand cherokee zj or a cherokee xj
They are very good cars. I would search for a XJ in good shape. Like one that was driven by a grandpa. Thanks for the advice and i think my uncle will like that (Tony Carvallo) but they are a bit of a gas guzzler
I get about 400 miles per tank in the zj.
I'll post my Tacoma later. God bless Toyota for still selling them new with a 6sp manual.
Cobalts are decent, if you're wanting basically an American Honda. Not as reliable though, I didn't have any issues with mine until I totaled it
I like F-body cars from the late 90s, early 00s
Dad finally got his birthday present. He’s gonna take off the gearbox and manipulate the governator to make it go 40mph.
Nice mate
One of the many instances during my time as a cart pusher
Walmart sucks
Oof poor toyota
That's nothing, give me a few, putting these all in a compilation gif
I got a pair of pictures of what happened to a Frankenstein of a friend when we went offroading
It was a few weeks ago
A good ride for 800 bucks for a "car" legally qualified as wreckage
local walmart put in a pole with a pickup sign right where people like to cut the corner (apparently going 15+ mph). This is the result. Gave this small town something to talk about. Pole was even given a name, his own mask, and people came and stopped by from out of state just to see it. Many memes were made
Boomer drivers are the ban of my existence
F*male drivers are even worse
