My range is < $20,000 just because I'm not trying to break myself with a car. Any ideas? Oh and power options are a must and I'm not really into speed so nothing like a big ass engine.
Congrats- Keep an eye in the autotrader!

Thanks for the pointers... And yes, a 2 year old car/truck would be IDEAL actually. When I got my car I got it Jan 7th, 2005 but it was a 2004. I got it substancially cheaper than the 05's because it was now 05 and they wanted to get rid of that last 04 on the lot. But yeah, an 04/05 wouldn't be bad either.

Honestly I have 2002 f150 with a v6 in it and it gets excellent gas mileage and it can still haul stuff. And you can never go wrong when you buy a ford.

It gets terrible gas mileage compared to the Echo I drive everyday, but all things considered 15MPG isn't bad for what it is.

Ok and in my defense I suppose that a regular cab, short bed, v6 F150's is awesome. This discussion is OVER.

Breezy goodluck in your voyage man. I didn't ask anyone to put a plug in for my Durango.
