Car Ideas! Passed my license today yay!

[S. Hunter]

So as the title says, I passed my license today and now I want to start looking for a vehicle, I've always loved jeep o.o

 

Here's the thing, I have a two year old little man, and a newborn on th way, plus my full time job soooo super busy, plus the unit o.o

 

I live in Canadia land, any recommendations for a good 2010+ vehicle ?

[Gilmore 1st MRB]

Subaru all the way! We've had several different ones over the last 5 years all 2nd hand bought and used. We usually sell them and get another one after we beat the hell out of them. We finally got the cash flow to get a new one and got a Forester 2015. Amazing gas mileage and a ton of room, plus incredibly safe.

[J. Hill]

Subaru's are good vehicles.  They last a long time.  Also Hyundai.  last one I had I owned for 10 years before I had to replace it.  As far as Jeep is concerned, I would say no.  Who wants to drive around in a vehicle that was made by people who get drunk and high during lunch?  Do you want to take that chance with your family's safety?

I like the Subaru suggestion as well. You can't go wrong with a Forrester or Outback. My wife and I have a 2014 Toyota Rav4 we bought new and we love it!!! stay away from jeeps unless you are a good transmission mechanic!

Go for german brands such as Audi, BMW and Mercedes, great cars, bit more expensive then average tho.

Get a Volvo. They last forever. I love mine.

My better half is die hard on Subaru she has had 2 98 imprezzas both amazing cars and took high mileage and amazing in the snow. She got hit in 1 of them and the lady totaled it only reason she got rid of it. So if a 90s one can handle that then a new one would be good plus they are rated the safest car. I have a 2014 Hyundai Santa fe and I love it does amazing on long car trips lots of space in it very good gas mileage and it has Bluetooth heated seats back up camera etc. Best car I've ever had and I've had a Pontiac g6 chevy trailblazer chevy Tahoe Honda civic etc. My grandmother drove a Hyundai Santa fe for years. I would also recommend looking at a Nissan rogue my grandmother has one and it is quite the little crossover. I would not recommend jeeps especially with children they are not safe they can tip easy they break and are expensive to fix. Hope this helps.

First one that's got the right idéa here, I got a volvo 850 from like 98 or 95 can't remember, and it's still going strong man, my dad got a new v70 and it's really nice, not expensive either and good L/100km

[Shank2]

With all do respect... The people from across the pond... Your cars even if they have the same model/number are made different with different standards than here in the states. Just look below:

 

 

VS.

 

 

See even the same model Corvette looks a lot different!!!

 

Only bonus is, the European car comes with a life size replica of 1stLt. Quarterman.

[Göthe 1st MRB]

I don't see the problem Shank. Also you preferred cars from across the pond to be honest. Subaru and Toyota are both Japanese cars so what's the delio?

Also that's a Peel not a corvette, and too be honest I would rather drive the Peel than the Corvette 

[Shank2]

^^ The above was joke... Maybe you should take another nap... and buy a chevy!

[Göthe 1st MRB]

Spoiler

I know that it was a joke,,,, but it's fun to argue sometimes

A chevy omg never! We had one of them and that fucker broke down in less than a year.

 

[Shank2]

Same I will never buy one again...

And robust. Anything you hit will leave a dent while the volvo will carry on trucking.

If I had five kids I would own a Renault Espace. My Uncle had one for years. We called it 'the bus'. Ugly as sin but if you need to carry a load of people it does the job.

 

This is mine:

 

 

I don't know much about cars but I know my Father had a bargain when he bought this. It goes like shit off a shovel! Still amazes me I have never been caught speeding. I have had three fines for parking in bus stops though.

 

 

[I. Turner 1st MRB]

For 5 kids the only good vehicle is a police can with a soundproof barrier lol tahoes are good for a descent amount of kids and most have a DVD player in the back seat to keep them occupied plus third row seating is nice. I loved mine 

[S. Hunter]

haha thanks for the laughs guys, actually I've been around jeeps my whole life and they've outdone most brands around me. If anyone rolls it they obviously weren't driving it properly, but I'll be looking at volkswaggen, volvo is a bit pricy up here.

[J. Hill]

Wasn't it a Jeep that rolled backwards and killed the guy who played Chekov in the new Star Trek movies?  It was due to a transmission problem that should have been recalled but was not recalled properly.  slipped out of gear and pinned him against a stone wall.  Just Saying, you don't want a vehicle made by people who get drunk and high at lunch.

[Guest]

What if they do all the work in the morning?

[J. Hill]

its an assembly line.  they build cars all day long.  24/7.
