FrostFire_MT Rookie Author New Jersey Posts:1 Points:520 Joined:Jun 2012	Message Posted: Jun 6, 2012 9:17:35 PM Ignore FrostFire_MT Report Abuse My first choice is for an Electric Vehicle because of the operational cost savings. My second choice would be a diesel engine vehicle for the power and slightly better fuel economy.
JDStraw Rookie Author Jacksonville Posts:7 Points:2,540 Joined:Feb 2011	Message Posted: Jun 6, 2012 12:40:03 PM Ignore JDStraw Report Abuse Something so out of date until it won't have a special name for it, but will be able to use regular gas, that is, if regular gas is still around. Can't afford any of those new kind of cars they're making now. My car/jalopy is 13 years old and has 132,000 miles on it. I only use it when it is absolutely necessary, trying to "save' it as long as possible. In comedy shows, dishonest car salesmen like to sell jalopies that are not up to par by telling the potential customers that the car was previously owned by a little old lady who only drove it to church on Sundays. My car could almost fit that description. I'm not a little old lady, but I use my car just like the little old ladies in the comedy shows. On one of those old Andy Griffith Shows, Barney, the deputy, was sold a clunker of a car described exactly like that. :-) A great day to all! [Edited by: JDStraw at 6/6/2012 1:41:39 PM EST]
