looking for something preferably between 20k and 25k. My current whip is worth a lil over 25k. I owe only like 20k. I love my baby (Tahoe LTZ on dubs) but im thinking that its time to move on...having transmission issues (only 60k miles for a 6 year old car) recently had rim issues because of driving in atl traffic and potholes for my bum ass job... So here are my current options
'15 Charger. I like the bodystyle especially in the front and LED lighting. I also want mines white with 5% tint. V6, only 30k miles. I might have to install my own rearview camera but subs should be easy
Rims are whatever... Might switch to powdered blacks afterwhile, then im straight.
I prefered something with a tech package though...
Second car
Impala LTZ '
Love this look. Car is V4 (atleast good on gas) and a nice car. Offered at 23000 but lower miles.
And there are other cars im interested in. Audi A3
Or Audi A4
Chevy malibu
Chevy Colorado
Or Ford Fusion
Been meaning to test drive some. Those were what Autotrader hooked me up in the beginning of the post.
I want to keep my truck just not get 2 notes. Im commuting to work so I want something smooth and pretty good on gas.
You are going to keep the truck, no trade-in, and are looking for a used car in the $20,000 to $25,000 range.
Or, you are going to trade the truck and are looking to get $5,000 for it and get a loan for $15,000 to $20,000.

Anyway, dubs are heavy rims and can be related to various issues because of their weight and size. You would encounter the same tranny problems, suspension, rim damage issues even if you didn't drive in the ATL. If you like the Tahoe, get another one but stick with rims that are close in size to OEM. It will also help on fuel economy.

I would suggest looking into the following to check out:
1. early 2010s Lexus IS 250
2. early 2010s Acura TSX
3. early 2010s Nissan Maxima
4. early 2010s Infiniti G37

Appreciate the advice

I kinda know what im getting already. The truck is worth 26G's but im going lower in price and getting something i want with less mileage, longer warranty, etc. i might get another truck but we'll see. I commute like an hour to my job but only 3 days out of 5.

I really love my truck. Thats my baby, but it might be time to let her go

I have long commute too. 65 miles one way.

A full-size pick-up trunk isn't good for gas mileage. Even the mid-size ones like the Chevy Colorado and Nissan Frontier are gas guzzlers. I looked into those trucks are saw they weren't fuel efficient (the crew cab versions).

Whatever you do, don't get the Audi. I had an A4 when I was a young'n, they don't last long and annoying ot repair.

If you want to go psuedo-luxery, go with a Lexus. At least those use Toyota parts.:manny:

Yeah i know. My homegirl had an A4 and that shyt stayed in the shop and was expensive af.

Its the reason im not pulling the trigger on the Audi... Maybe when im older and more established

i was actually considering this. Still considering it actually, theyre good cars and look good.

My mechanic actually recommended me to get this. He said of apl the cars that come through his shop, he see's less Kias than anything

I just got a black 2015 Impala LTZ exactly like the pic except it's a V6. It's nice, handles and accelerates great for a big car, is a head turner, pretty quiet inside, and has pretty good standard features. I couldn't imagine a 4 cyclinder though. The 305 hp on the V6 is just right.
