I wanted to buy a Tacoma but the Rangers price was right. Both are reliable trucks but you practically don't need to maintnece a Taco
We had a Ranger a while back, we liked it, but it had design problems that drove me nuts. It served its purpose at the time, but I need the 4WD now, and am very happy with the Taco, which is what my daughter calls it too.
I just think they look awful. 2 doors are sleek, stylish and 4 doors are clunky looking. Just a personal preference. Besides, since I am childfree, I don't NEED any more than two doors. LOL
Totally agree. Just wondering how many out there are like me, basing it on what they like, as opposed to what may be the best fit financially, or the safest or the best fuel economy, or the ones that buy because they are into the 'green' thing and want to 'do their part' or whatever.
But yes, for me, it's quite emotional. I adore my cars. It's caused many a disagreement with hubby!
I'm with you, Mrs.
I buy my vehicles because I like them. Never because they are practical or logical. Living "in town" means I only driver a few thousand miles a year so gas mileage isn't that big an issue . . . performance and good looks are.
My 2005 Chevy SSR is pushing 5 years now and I have absolutely no intentions of letting it get away. It is fun to drive and offers fantastic performance plus the retractable hardtop offers the best of both worlds.
Bottom line . . . buy and drive what you want and like.
I chose my 2007 Yukon Denali because it's big and comfortable for an everyday commute. I enjoy having a bigger vehicle for everyday use, it seems to come in handy quite too. When it's time to trade up in a year or so, I'll buy another SUV or possibly a truck. Not sure what I want at the moment, I'll look into another Denali, but I may also check out the new Lexus SUV.
I have my 2005 Corvette for weekend play. It's too low to the ground to drive everyday to work. It is fun on the twisty mountain roads though .
