I would be willing to bet that insurance on the tuner cars would cost far more than gas would in a 12 month period, even @ $4/gallon for a SUV! Under 25 and not married = wallet rape in Louisiana for insurance. Heck, I even looked into getting the STi last year, and insurance would have been cheaper on a C6 Vette.ford explorers and jeep cherokees are cheap as shitz right now and are good in snow while being pretty easy for installs. aren't the best when it comes to good gas mileage, but you'll definitely be able to find a decent one for under 9K
If you can afford the gas then I would get the Tahoe, as you said prices are nice on them right now you can get something with
I can get a 03-04 Tahoe for about 6-7k
did i mention my dad is a car dealer?
