Wife just totaled our 2017 VW golf sportwagon and I'm thinking of scratching my roadster itch with a 2016 Miata MX-5 grand touring with 12,000 miles. It will be a automatic with a softop. Not thrilled about either of these options but I like paddle shifters so I'll get some enjoyment out of it...

Hey guys the warranty is almost up on my wife's VW golf sportwagon and we will be looking to trade it in and also trade our way out of the $400 dollar new car payment into a sub $300 payment. I love my f150 2.7 eco so much that I'm considering the eco mustang circa 2015-16. She loves the looks...

Hey folks my last few posts here at bitog have been about finding a good used 3/4 ton diesel to upgrade from my f150 2.7 eco. I'm having a hard time find a good pre emmissions truck in my price range that isn't junk and many people here have recommended a gasser which honestly I didn't really...

I'm cool with the rough ride, buying it for towing. Didn't like the bank terms on the 05. Got approved with better terms on a 08 3500 6.7 6 spped manual. Still have to go check it out though. It is deleted though.

Thanks yall

Hey folks I've been used diesel hunting and I've found a 2005 Ram 3500 5.9 4x4 238,000 miles that I'm going to go look at. I'm not diesel saavy so any pointers on what to look at engine wise would be appreciated. It's a auto(really wanted a 6 speed manual) but it's been built by suncoast, who is...

Thanks for all the replies. Here's a idea on what I'm looking at for something to buy. Seems to be quite a few of these nice 6.0 trucks, probably because so many were scared off from them. autonation bradenton

Yea I really don't want to pull a trailer 25k miles a year getting 7 miles to the gallon. Seems like that's what I would be getting based on what other 6.2 and 6.8 users are getting. I'm barely getting 9mpg with my 2.7 ecoboost pulling 6k let alone upgrading to a 10k+ trailer.
