New Vehicle

Lately I have been suggested on getting a new car by my mom and my brother. My current car is a 1995 Ford Taurus with over 150,000 miles on it. I think it will at least last the summer, but I don't believe I can afford a new car. My current part-time job does not pay me enough to buy a new car even with monthly payments. I barely make enough to save up money and pay off school loans. I truly hope I can get a full time job that I can move closer to and use public transportation to get to it. It is among one of the most economical decisions.

I would prefer to get a Vespa after getting a motorcycle license than get another gas guzzling car. I know I could only drive it during the summer, but it would surely help on gas payments since they can get nearly 75 miles to the gallon! Besides, I think they look neat, considering you see them in Europe, Japan, and in the Anime FLCL.

If I do get a motorcycle license and I don't feel like the Vespa is fast enough, I would get something like what my brother has, a Ninja Kawasaki motorcycle. The Japanese motorcycles have a much better design than the American Harley. There are not many favorable American vehicle designs.

A car I would want to get if I had a ridiculous amount of money would be a Pontiac Firebird. It would have to be black in color and of a similar model as the picture above. I don't care how much gas it takes, this would at least be a fun car, even if you shouldn't drive it that often. I doubt I will ever get the chance though.

I would settle for an electric car or a Hybrid, but those cost way too much money. I don't want to get anything that looks ridiculous and takes as much or more gas than my current car. I have a bad feeling that might occur.

Maybe I should try drawing these vehicles. It might help me come up with inspiration for my own ideas for a cool vehicle design. After all, I don't know that much about cars, or any other vehicles.

    1. I will have to get a new car sooner than I thought. My Ford Taurus is falling apart faster than I thought, so I'm looking into Honda. What did you get?
