a car is a car. As long as it works properly and makes me feel safe i'll like it... actually that's not quite true, but I am not fussy as long as it isn't a diesel or a 4x4

It is incredible what some of the old iron will bring. With the link below you can find out what your grandfathers Oldsmobile just sold for.

Don't lump all 4x4s together. There are some off-road trucks, SUV's etc that have high centers of gravity and can be unstable in corners, but there are some very nice AWD cars that handle like a dream. My wife's Subaru Legacy sedan is a sweet-handling little car and it handles far better in slippery conditions than my Nissan 4x4 pickup.Beautiful Mess said:i don't like them. 4x4 scare me, and diesels smell (or if its anything like my sister's car... they die on hills regularly lol). Though not as bad as catalystic converters...
