The f/s is too darned big.
I can fit it in the garage, but it's a 2-minute operation.
I'm not sure the missus could do it, plus it's not something you want to do every day.
 
We used to have a Nissan hardbody, which was a great little truck, at least pre-baby. But now we're post-baby, obviously, 7 years later...
 
The Nissan was $11 and we sold it for $6 five years later...that's what I consider a good deal. It also didn't cause any trouble during that time. I have little confidence that a Colorado would perform as well over the long haul, so I was interested in the short-term cost.
 
As far as the 5sp issue; I've never had a problem finding buyers for my stick shift cars. They still have their friends, and the cars are getting hard to find.

In December 2002 I bought a new '02 Avalanche for about $32,xxx on a $38,000 plus sticker with zero percent GMAC financing. Same thing then - they offered to finance $40,000 (and, no, I was NOT upside down on the trade). I was probably foolish not to have taken the money.

"I sometimes wonder if GM's business model is to sell cars to clueless people. And eventually, they're gonna run out of those"
 
Ya really think so?

And eventually, they're gonna run out of those, or rather, those people will run out of money.
 
The way I really said it, yeah I think so.

Well..at ZERO PERCENT perhaps....for those of us that manage our money well, that might have been a no-brainer....drop it in the bank, or a CD for 4 years and make interest on their money.
 
Oh well....

Hey Terry, here's another one. It's not black, but it's a nice one. Asking price is $12k, I offered $10k via email (I'd looked at it about a month ago), and they came down to $10,800.

And this one....
 
Asking price is $11,500, haven't received a reply yet. Seems low.

Honda Civic by sandman46

That brown Civic looks really good for it's age actually. How anemic were those 1.6 liter engines? I'm getting a bit tired of the 1.8 in my Sentra after driving the wife's 2.3 Mazda3s. I can only imagine how the smaller Civic engine performs. But having never owned a Honda product, maybe that smaller engine pulls pretty effectively...I just have my doubts.
And how do the Civics transmissions perform? Does one actually feel the shifts or are they a bit more seamless? I must say that for a 6 year old car, that Civic looks pretty flawless!

For $10, it better be flawless, and do your taxes, too!
Count me out.
