    decision for my birthday

    alright today is my 18th birthday. my dad just recently got a new car (2004 Jaguar S-Type) and he wants to give me his 98 Mazda B3000 (same as a ford ranger) the truck is beautiful and needs nothing. the only problem is it LOVES gas, it has the bigger engine in it (V6). well my decision is to either keep my 89 accord lx and save money on gas but needs a little bit of work, or to take a newer mint truck that needs nothing but loves gas. if i take the truck i am going to sell my car. i don't know what to do... what do you think?

    If u don't really want the truck I'd take it and sell it and buy somthing else. Probably a newer Teg or Accord.

    Go with the truck. Try it out if it don't work out then sell it later and get another 3G.

    Sell the truck and sell the accord and go buy a date for the night


    J/K I would do what you want, if you want the truck take it. If not your dad will kill you if you take it and re-sell it. If I were your dad I would be pissed.

    When you're in pain at the pumps shelling out all that cash bear in mind it could be alot worse.. you could be driving my truck with the 350 that gets 9 mpg

    I'm with portugal, but I know the whole father thing so here's what you do. Keep both, drive the truck, wreck the truck (on accident) get money for the truck, mod the car.
