chevy good ford bad
So my moms car is in the shop again...clunking from the belt area..probably a goign water pump or something..
But after 1 rental company that had a ford that was in worse condition then my moms car, we got a chevy montecarlo.
I have to give it to chevy right now, the two 06 chevy's ive been in were the montecarlo rental, and my aunts 06 malibu.
both ride nice, are comfortable,roomy easy to operate, decent sound system..
moral of story, if the car costs 200+ to fix where getting a new car, probably a malibu..
thats the car we are leaning to right now, after my original choice of a z06  and my sisters choice of a "honda yo"

Wait, so if the repairs cost more than $200 you will go buy a new car?
So you have loads of money to burn?
Look, the taxes, tags and title alone will probably cost you upwards of $1500 alone, in cash, when you sign the paperwork. Then you have increased insurance AND a larger car payment I bet.
How does a simple $200 bill make new car buying, make sense?

I'm actually defending wayfast?!
I believe the reasoning here is 1) it's his mom's car, 2) they've had it for a while and it's time to move on, and 3) it seems this mofugga has a new problem every week

I'm guessing the Cobalt. The coupe comes with the SS or SS Supercharged packages, however the sedan only comes with the SS package....no blower available from the factory.
