[quote="Short Hand":dc424]still its 9800 $ and the thing is that it probably takes 20000 Grand + to fuel that thing for a year. Thats insane.[/quote:dc424]

No, not that much. That tahoe probably takes about 45 to fill in ny, every 2 weeks so thats 26x45=$1170 And no way in hell youd have to fill every two weeks unless youre doing some serious driving

Short Hand 08-17-2004 06:46 PM

Round where I live people dirve 200 + KM's a day, they all work in Toronto So it is very possible, even if 2ok is an exaggeration, it is still insane.


My Cav gets 600 KM to the tank and costs 30.50 $ Canadian to fill up. My Dads 3.7 Litre Jeep Liberty costs 61.00 $ to fill up and only gets 535 KM to the tank... So this Tahoe must be a beast of a machine in comparision.

My uncle did some investing while he was young and now he has 3 kids that have been through college and all debts are paid, the house is paid off and all the cars have been payed for. He has no fnancial worries. If you invest your money now, you'd probably make a shitload of money once you're 35 or so.

I got to test drive a legacy last week. Wow what a ride. I still want to try out a WRX STi though... 300 + HP + All wheel drive must be one hell of a drive, espcially on soem off road endeavours. Always wanted to try rally racing.[/quote:a734b]My family has a thing for the legacy. I drive our older one ('91) and my mom drives a '03 legacy...very easy to drive and very quiet. It almost feels like it should easily cost more than $30,000 (USD), but they're fairly cheap for what you pay for.

$61?!?!?!?! jesus christ, the silerado has around a 22 gallon tank and its a lot cheaper than that

Short Hand 08-17-2004 06:49 PM

61 Canadian.

Yeah, unless you work out in the bush, and contantly ferry 6 passengers in there with you then you don't need a big fucking 4x4 SUV. If you're just driving around the city, swallow your fucking pride and get a compact car. You don't have a family and if you're really who you say you are, you can't really afford to drop a few thousand on gas a year. Buying a gas guzzling ego machine will not do you any good. RRSP's and a well rounded out stock portfolio WILL do you good.

Milla 08-17-2004 07:01 PM

Sporttronic indeed, but i want a stick

Sergeant_Scrotum 08-17-2004 07:24 PM

I never understood why people braged about their gas millage in how far they could drive on a tank of gas. Everyones tank is different! each car has a different sized tank! oOo:

Yeah that was on my mind to.. I don't wanna blow all this money at once I don't know ill probably keep my jeep and buy my kids when Im old and gray the hummer I always wanted by then they might not be that expensive


and you guys I still live with my mom I don't pay bills, I don't pay for food, I don't pay for a house, for now my mom pays for my car (its a 1995 jeep) and all that till I move out. I keep $20 from my paycheck and put the rest in the bank

I got the idea from my 7th grade (or 8th grade can't remember) math teacher he told us start saving when your young you'll be a millionaire by the time your 21 or something like that

Hummers suck, it's just a rap-gangsta wanna-be mobile.

Here's the best advice you'll get . Keep the jeep, invest your money to buy yourself a new crib. There's nothing like owning your own home.....screw the cars!!
