Default need a putter

My car is getting kind of iffy to drive especially with as much power as I'm putting thoruogh the 10 bolt, and my neighbors hate me for starting the car at 5 in the morning so I need something I could pick up for $500 or less that has heat and will be reliable with decent mileage for a while. I dont care if it is a ford or honda or whatever just no VW or dodge products. Thanks Brandon

I've been thinking of selling my Jeep because of my new job. I'm really in need of a pick-up truck. 100k, Inline 6, 1999, power everything, clean title, no dents, some really minor scratches on back bumper, interior is next to perfect. It's got a Rubicon 4'' lift w/ New 35 inch BF Tires, Sahara edition wheels, custom exhaust, K&N CAI, aftermarket headers, tow package, alpine alarm, alpine cd/spkrs, cargo mate, Yak rack, aftermarket tint all around, PIA fog lights, runs and drives perfect. Drives up curbs and over things great too 6300.00 No biggie it your not interested because it will be hard to part with. Probably the best vehicle I have ever owned.

I'm kind of looking for anything, I dont want a 76 chev 3/4 ton on 44's or something rediculous like that, I would prefer a small truck or car kind of looking at a geo I found on craigslist. Chris how much do you want for the Kia? Oh and my hair wouldnt look good as a mullet it would be a mexullet.

What do you mean mileage on commute? How many miles I drive with my job each day? I'm the second owner and bought it with 40k. Pretty much all the miles I've put on it are freeway miles driving back and forth to Vancouver.

Long day today, it just dawned on me maybe you were asking what kind of gas mileage it gets...if so, it get about 18 city and 21 hwy

$750 would be nice, I spent 400 in parts on it recently. Anything goes wrong with it I'll sell you parts for cost. Ran real strong, just needed a v8 under my foot.

If you lived next to Oklahoma I would have a car for you. I have a 1994 Buick Regal Custom that runs perfect, fresh tune up. It was the wifeys car, but I bought her a 5.0 fox body right before we came up here and stashed the Regal in my GPa's garrage. Door and fender is dinged, and grill is busted. I'd sell it cheap...

Yep, should have clarified that part...the mpg in commute. it wouldn't have much more than an 8 mile one way commute so that is managable
