Dream Car Garage- $55K Edition

Featured Replies

I'm hoping people may have just needed a break from these or have been busy, so I'm putting up a new one today to stir up some action.

This one is going to have a few more rules, though. Really get some of you guys thinking.

Rules-

1- Production models only

2- These are your only vehicles

3- Limit of 5 choices

4- You must pick AT LEAST 2 new vehicles with an MSRP of $55,000 or less, not counting MFR incentives.

5- Any market and era is allowed for used cars

6- Used picks must have reasonable availability and be in decent shape for the price.

7- Only one of your used car picks can be LESS THAN 3 years old. 

8- One of your used picks must be AT LEAST 5 years old.

9- One of of your used picks must be AT LEAST 10 years old.

10- Age is based off of MODEL YEARS from 2017. Example, a 2007 MY vehicle is 10 years old.

Hehe, comparisons sake and a backup.  If i remember right the 13 didn't have the air suspension but rather just a ride height increase.  I think weird a lot of times haha.
