How good you think that thing will be in the snow tho? Being RWD

And the AWD TBSS's, how are they as far as speed? I know there not as fast as the RWD, but what are they getting down into?

I had an 04 TB LS with 4wd back in the day, and it handled awesome even in 2wd. It'll be better then the Cobalt, that's for sure.

The AWD's do very well even for the drive-train loss that they have. Both AWD as well as RWD have been seen getting anywhere from 14.3's to 13.7's bone stock. That's not bad for a 5000lb SUV

Good price or no? Shipping it down here would be $400 and then we would have to buy a plane ticket up there to pay the guy in person.... opinions?

Surprisingly enough, the goat did pretty good in the snow last year but we just bought a 1996 tahoe so we don't have to worry about it anymore

I'd say they are fast little caRS but one with that many miles.... ehhh I donno if I could trust one of them. maybe not as an everyday car.

I think I would do it. Thats all a pretty good $$ How much would a plane ticket be for you?

Yea, I bought the Tahoe for $3000 and it's worth $5500 atleast. I just had to put a new radiator in it, which cost me a total of $150. So the way I figure it, is I got it for cheap, so if I have to dumpo a couple hundred into it......it doesn't bother me.

Yea, i got the 94 blazer with 80K for $2,000.

I didn't realize Perth Amboy was so bad? lol U guys make it sound like Newark or Patterson? lol

And North Jersey is the ****! I can't say I mind it up here. A ton of asian population now, but otherwise It has everything 1 would need.

They were originally giving me like 17 or 18 for the Cobalt and I was financing 33.4 for 84 months. When I came back to talk about making adjustments to my downpayment, he told me that the only bank that would approve me could only do 75 months, with a higher interest rate and the payments went from 533 to 650. I said, HELL NO!!

Got to the point that I put the keys on the desk, and told him that I wanted my car back in the same shape that I dropped it off in. I was there for almost 3 hours, and got him down to 27K out the door with Gap insurance, and 560 a month for 75 months. First payment not due till like the 16th of December too. Interest rate is still a bit high, but I can re-finance for a lower rate in a couple months with no problems

Yea wtf. He was gone forever, and returns with a cobra. Nice upgrade.

Now I need to dump this POS for something RWD or AWD.

Preferably AWD so I don't go through tires every week
