I know nothing about cars.

If you could drive anyone of these cars for three years - and not worry about gas costs or maintenance costs - which would you pick and why.

Thanks.

the taurus because it obv looks the best

my buddy has one and the sound system is the tits

and X2 on the 200 sucking... it really is brutal

Def the Taurus imo. Good looking car with a good list of standard options. Haven't driven it, but 3.5 v6 should be fun to drive. Malibu is as vanilla as it gets imo, Impala's interior is extremely outdated, and I'm just not a big fan of Chrysler.

The Chevy Malibu is an awesome car.

Nice to see someone here buys american too instead of all that fake jap crap.

Sad but el burro is kinda right fm use to be awesome compared to ford

Shit my s-10 I ran 200 miles without transmission fluid, cracked the case, but now they are weaker than crap. I actually won't buy another vehicle unless its an old car as in pre-90s or they get a self driving car that runs off of solar panels

Fake jap crap? Really? Japanese (and even Korean) cars really outshine American cars lately on quality, for the most part.

And seeing how he doesn't have to worry about gas or maintenance costs, it would seem like this is a work car, or something similar. Probably only has a choice between these American cars.

out of the above options, like everyone is saying Taurus is the best.

Hyundai is Korean...lol. Would love to hear the blind bias adjectives he would use to describe Korean cars.

get the impala fool

My fake jap crap is going on 200k with little work other than the scheduled maintenance. It gets 30 in the city and 38+ on the highway. I never have to worry if it will start or if it will make it through my next road trip.

I'm pretty sure no one said Japanese cars are amazing. I was responding to the moron who said they are crap, which they clearly aren't.

There is no doubt that cars that can connect to your phone are cool, but my phone can become a hotspot without that and google can get me directions, alternate routes, and traffic. My phone cost $200 and your car cost $30k.

I just bought a 2012 Ford Explorer, and it's the nuts. When I'm driving on long road trips, it syncs to my phone and creates a wifi hotspot. The other people in my car can connect to the internet through it. It makes long trips much more doable. If I'm in Canada with it, I'm totally going to try to connect to pokerstars in it. It also connects to my pandora, stitcher, itunes, etc. If it's an extra few thousand, make sure you get ford mytouch and ford sync. It's well worth it and makes things so much safer. If I'm going somewhere, I just call Ford services and get directions, alternate routes, and traffic reports for the destination. You get three years free of this service.

The innovations in Ford over the last few years should definitely be applauded.

Yeah, Toyota and Honda have been slacking in the style department over recent years, but they still make one high quality product. South Korean cars on the other hand, have been raping the field on styling, with what appears to be a good quality product, but that's still yet to be proven over time.

I dont know what that is -- but I like it.

I've got a 4door civic, I actually think they're pretty decent looking for an economy car. Got 40mpg on the drive to Texas, with every inch of space filled too.

Thanks all - went with the Taurus

hate chrysler's shit. made the mistake of getting a town and country. A/C never works, brakes wore through already. hopefully the transmission doesnt go. fucking pile of shit. also had a 2010 charger as a rental for a few weeks. it drives like it was a 25 year old.

whereas my 95 camry got up to 215k miles, just replaced it with a avalon thats 2 years newer.. hoping to get to 250k.
