get a civic. you can get old civics for like 2k- 4k, and they live up till 200k+ mileage. In that way you can still have your car

I can't say I like those two trucks, I'm not a lowrider guy. Look into a honda prelude or a nissan 300z, they're light on their feet, and pretty quick. Plus they will get good gas mileage. I wanted a prelude before I got this v6 camaro. The late model ones look really nice. Maybe a twin turbo supra?

Those small trucks are affordable and tend to get good gas mileage. If I were to get one it would be an S10 or Sonoma, not a fan of bagged trucks though, either tastefully lifted or left alone. You could always go back to a sixxer F-body.

I currently own a Toyota pick up 35mpg in town so you really can't beat it and I paid $1600.

Im looking for a cheap car/truck thats good on gas and low insurance so i can put my Camaro on the stands and rebuild the engine... But im stuck between selling it for something that already runs in fair shape(i found an 84 Vette with 111K for 3400 and owning ANY vette has always been a dream of mine).
