Isn't that the low rider type pick up from Chevy? If it is, I have smoke two of them. A couple of my boys have them and they wanted to run them. The only one that gave me a run was my boys modded one. He's got duallies and an intake. They both know how to drive too so I don't know. I was actually looking at getting one until I saw my vic. I think it's a mad nice truck though. Get it. But you are a trader!!!!

It's American. I hope you have some money saved up for the repair bills. BTW, do you like to spend alot of time at the dealership waiting on your Xtreme to be fixed? [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] I thought so...

I have always like those trucks. Would I trade a honda for a chevy? No, and an explanation is not needed.

Will that 4-banger stomp a civic? flip no!

You are comparing 2 totally different vehicles. Maybe you bought the wrong car to start with. Heck, if you really like it that much, why not?

It all depends on what your top priority is.

Its a nice truck, no way would it stomp a civic. Its about looks, not "go", especially the 4 banger model. If I'm not mistaken, thats very similar if not the same 2.2 4banger from the Cavalier? Looks, and i'm sure, sounds great too. As long as you don't mind something slower than the Civic. I couldn't take it, personally.

Well, since im into cars... not trucks. I would advise you to steerclear of any truck possible. I live in south texas, you either own down here a Mustang or a Truck. If you dont own one your a minority. Since im white, in south texas im already a minority so I figured what the hell buy a civic. Get good gas milage, and if I run into 20 grand.. I'll make the car fast too...
