how much are you planning on spending? what are your activities and how often do you drive far?

The VW will use less gas... But I'd go for the jeep, more fun and it's not made in germany :)

It depends on alot of factors.

1. How old are ya, if you are young leave the VW VR6 alone.

2. Geographical location, the jeep is too light for the snow 4X4 or not.

3. Do you drive like a jackass or like a normal person. If you are a young teen then it will be beat to hell, just buy a junker.

4. Your past driving history. I have talked in another thread on the things I drive and a first timer will not be able to own a Porsche like myself.

If you want serious advice then well talk here if not then just do what ever, it will be expensive if you chose wrong and you will propably have a repo on your credit reports.

Get the VW...

If you drive like a retard and you take a corner to fast, that Jeep is just gunna rooollll.

The VW doesn't take up as much gas, has a turbo engine (:)), and looks nice (hey, u gotta be able to pick women up in it).

Or you can get a Daewoo like me...or I'll sell you mine?

My advice to you is to buy a big piece of shit car, like an old oldsmobile or crown vic.....cuz i PROMISE you you will crash your first car.
its not a question, you WILL crash your first car, i dont care if you think your a good driver or not, do not buy a fast, expensive car, you will kick yourself in the end.

do you know that the police issued crown vics here in dallas have been blowing up? it's due to the location of the gas tank and the shittiness of the materials used...

yeah, ive been following that, my friend has one, its only for the new ones, old ones dont blow up. It seems whenever someone rear ends a crown vic, even at speeds lower than 30, the gas tank splits and explodes.......mmmmmmm BBQ pork

You need to sit down and ask yourself a serious question: Which car is going to get me more ass?

yeah i noticed that about jeeps
but i have made my decision and it is a little out of place but i am getting a GMC sonoma (tiny pickup) and i an putting a little bit of a lift kit on it and bigger tires
it looks pretty good when its done
*damn i wish i had a digital camera*
lol
oh and that unregistered was one of my friends from school thats an ongoing joke with us i think irish are gay so he calls greeks gay lol its just stupid but thanks for the input

Uuuuugh.....

Pickup truck! You have made a terrible mistake. Pickups are never cool. They're for hicks. I have no choice but to assume that you're a hick.

nah, not always. It depends on what part of the country you are in also. Some areas you can get away with different vehicles without being labeled.

So you're saying it's ok to have a pickup if you live in the countryside? No, you're a hick then too. If you need a 4x4, get a SUV. Not that they're much better, but a little.

I do have to admit there is a fine line between a nice truck and a hick truck. Trucks can be very usefull. I'll prob be picking one up here soon to use as a beater car. Because, I can get a small truck early 90's or so pretty cheap, they didn't really make any SUV's worht having back then. (short of an overpriced jeep wranger with no cargo capacity)

i know how you are thinking but they are no hick mobiles
plus insurance is relativley low and gas mileage is ok.....
but um
oh
heres a question to ponder over
if pickups are hick mobiles
then what do you call some one who lowesr the damn thing puts airbag suspension on it and nice rims and retarded graphics
you certainly dont call them hicks
