Well /o/ today I almost died
I was driving my jeep wrangler home from work and the front brakes completely locked up and sent me power sliding to the right. I counter steered hard stayed in my lane as best I could. It's a 45 mile drive and this happened the last 5 minutes of the drive right before my off ramp. My pedal was weak as shit. And my front brakes smoking up hard. Limped it home and tried to remove the wheel only to find the studs warped and the lug nuts too. Jeeps going to my dad's mechanic to get fixed up then I'm selling the fuckin thing since this isnt the first major failure i have.I'm probably gonna have like 4 grand max after I sell it so in the market for another car. Should I fall for the miatta meme?

Fuck yeah, gotta get a 90's miata so you can do the wink

Given your size and weight you should buy a Crown Victoria. Police interceptor model or not, they're a fucking awesome highway car.

Looking at these on Craigslist they look pretty cool and are within price range. How's the mpg? I get 17 right now in the jeep

Theyre not so good in the city, but cruise control on the highway they get a pretty nice 22-24 or so MPG. I have one and It costs me about 20$ Canadian weekly on gas

If you get the Police Interceptor, they are more powerful. Dual Exhaust, Bigger Torque Converter and Differential. Its nice and easy to break the rear end loose for some hektik skids.
