DECISIONS, DECISIONS

Our oldest son turned16 in July and got his driving license not too long after that. Since then, we've shared my car. I've decided to give him my Oldsmobile Alero. It's a 2001 with only 71,000 miles on it. It's paid off and in pretty good shape. I only drove it to work and back for the most part.

That means that I am on the look out for a new vehicle. I'm weighing my options. I've always wanted a truck. I want to buy a Ford 150 or 250.




Here are the choices I've come down to. I can buy a Ford, four door, F-150 or a Ford Taurus. The Taurus gets better gas mileage but, it's no truck.

We have 5 sons but I don't drive them around much in my vehicle because we use the van for family outings. I don't drive my work vehicle a lot so I'm not sure I need to really worry about the gas prices. I say that and immediately take that back. If the gas prices go back up like the media is speculating then the gas prices may figure into my decision.

I'.ll make a decision soon. In the meantime, what is your vote?

The Truck or The Car?
