3. 2003 GMC Sierra C/K1500 2WD Extended Cab $12,877----- 75,206miles Power Everything

Honestly since you already have a 4x4 vehicle, I say go with a car for gas mileage. Something like an 02 Subaru WRX or an 03 Mazdaspeed Protege. Get my jist? Or are you just completely against those?

no its the price that keeps me away from those...u are right about already having a 4wd...but i like trucks and i liked it but iam not set on a truck i will take a car if its a decent price or a suv...i will not drive a neon, or any of those cheap little cars

The F-350 looks good except the engine. the V10's suck gas like no other, so I would stay away from that. My next choice would be the Navigator, but I don't know what they get gas wise.

One thing about Mustang's... insurance is too high. I know an SS would be high, but not as high as a Mustang. I had a Z28 that was only like 150 a month.
