Looking for a second vehicle...

[Hankerton]

I currently have a 2003 Track edition 350Z and I'm looking for a vehicle for the winter time. Basically, I want a truck/SUV that can handle real well in rough weather conditions and can possibly tow later on.

Obviously I'm looking for a used vehicle as I don't want to spend more then $15K.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Anybody?

First of all, give more than 6 minutes before you bump n00b.

Second, look at a Tacoma for one of the best small pickups or a Chevy/GMC for cheap prices.

Less than $15k... 98-99 Mercedes ML. Fantastic winter car.

I'd say a chevy tracker. theyre damn cheap with chevy discounts (around 10K brand new), run pretty damn well (no problems so far with my parents 2002), and get pretty good gas mileage (around 30mpg with 5 speed). Only thing is, you'll prolly hate driving it after the 350Z, its not the most powerful suv-ish thing, but it works.

Older ford ranger
Get the V6 4x4
Cheap parts
Cheap truck
Should be under 10k

Sorry for the quick bump, I have to get back to work soon so I was hoping for a quick response.

I'll trade you a truck for that 350Z ;-)

In all seriousness, how about a ford escape? I'm sure you could find a used one for under 15k.

I second the Tacoma vote.

You mean the most unreliable vehicle MB ever produced?

You can get a new F-150 for that.

I wouldn't though, I'd get a 3 or 4 year old truck, where 15k will get you a very very nice vehicle.

I'd look at the Toyotas. They can't ever die.
