Default decisions decisions...

lookin for peoples opinions..just to help me try to make up my mind....i have my list all made up down to bolts gaskets all n any thing i would need for my hci...so now the thought pops into my head "thanks to the parents talking"..gas prices are gonna be crazy this summer ..rediculusly crazy..i wanted a bike last summer n ended up spendin that money on my car..so im thinking would it be smarter to A) spend the money on my car...have even worse gas mileage, but have a pretty quick mustang to drive..or B) stick basically with what i got for my car..few little odds n ends..and buy a bike..nothin really amazing..probablly around 01-02..cruiser..(personally dont lke sport bikes too much...i like loud) and have way better fuel mileage..still have the mustang and drive it...but mainly save on the gas ...idk just seein what everyone thinks....

It's up to you and what satisfy's your needs or wants. BTW gas prices likely want be dropping. It would be nice to have an extra mean's of dependabletransportation and then you could work on your stang when money allows.

seems like a a cheapy 4cyl might be more all-around practical. get good gas mileage, and can still drive in winter, as long as snow isn't ridiculous.

just go get your self another ford...say...a festiva?!
