ATTN car guys, what kind of vehicle should I buy?
Im in the market for a new car. Its time to retire my Acura and trade it in. I want something a little flashy but Im not spending a 100k or nothing. What is a reasonable vehicle that looks cool and has a bit of style to it. Ive been looking at a Hummer SUT. Any reccomendations?

The SRT-8 Cherokee is a cool vehicle. Not a bad idea. Too many 300s on the road

Everyone and thier brother has a 300. ITs played out. I guess a hummer is too but the Hummer is cooler.
It helps to be able to pull a boat but I dont have to. My dad still has a truck I can use for the boat.

Cadillac has come along way. The bumpers dont fall off like they used to. They are much better vehicles now. The CTS is a sweet ride.

Take a defensive driving course... it knocks off a few points off your dl and might lower your insurance rates a little
