Default Drivers License - 09-15-2005, 12:33 AM
I am getting it on Tuesday, I am confident that I will pass the test because I have been on the course, and it is extremely easy, just as long as I put extra effort into focusing on the particular things I must do. When I do pass, I will be getting a car from my dad. He want's to stay under $2,500. That's not going to happen because I will be getting something that will last for a while and is a nice, comfortable ride. I also want something that has good gas mileage. So far I have been thinking about possibly with Auto one of these:

VW Passat
Ford Focus ZX3
Mitsubishi Lancer (not evo)

.. but if someone could give me some ideas, that'd be real nice, something automatic, under 85K miles, and just overall a nice car. Oh, and something that can fit my 6'footness.. biggrin:

If you are driving auto anything will do, it all feels the fucking same....

25000 ? or 2500 ? 2500 will buy you shit. I sold my 96 Cavalier z22 for 4k alone. rolleyes:

-VW past 99 to present is undependable.....(they took the top 5 this year) !
-99 to 2000 Focuses has so many problems Ford nearly scrapped the Amrican version....
-Base model Evo ? You might as well be driving a civic.....


You best bet is a 92 to 98 VW Golf TDI. 50 + mpg = drool.

You didn't have to parallel park on your test? No wonder there are so many shitty drivers out there.

Yeah, the standards have been really cut short, particularly in California, ... I think. For the past year, I have been seeing some really shitty, irresponsible drivers. I saw one today. I was at a stop sign on a wide road, this small car pulls up to the right of me, I was turning left but instead he pulls up and goes ahead and turns left. I could have smashed his tiny little car with my dad's Suburban. eek:
