yeah the second one is a goof.. I have a four by four and don't care much for sport cars... considering so far I have seen men with a mid life crisis driving them, as their comb over
flies with the wind nonetheless I still want to know, why not go hybrid or electric?

I don't know much about them.. my brother picked out my current car and my ole man paid for it.. and I actually love it, although it has been dying on me recently, seems to cost me more than I'd sell it for at this stage, I think if I bought another one insha'Allah, it will be the same type, since I feel very comfortable driving it, I am not sure I can drive a small car, I'd feel weird...
just wanted to get the opinion of the guys on board.. I didn't know they were more expensive than regular cars? they seem flimsy to me..
this is what my current car looks like but mine has also a sun roof and
mean looking bars at the front, which I advise everyone to get, I was in head on collisions and where the other people's cars were totaled, my lights weren't even broken, the metal bars took the brunt of the impact wal7mdlilah...
of course my insurance went through the roof and I was pretty shaken.. nonetheless.. I learned a valuable lesson or two or three..
stay away from folks with Mercedes, beemers etc.. if absolutely must get into an accident make sure it is with a dodge geo

heh, did you get ^ from KSA?
good thing not much happened in the accident...
hybrids are good for gas conservation, the japanese ones are the best in fuel efficiency as of yet, 'm not sure but I think some even don't require plug-in charging. on the other hand not all cars are created equal, so high price, and the tech being still in it's infancy don't make it too attractive.
Seems pretty cool, but gotta' wait a couple of years before I'm legally allowed to take a driving test insha'Allah!

Should I seek a source of law other than God, when it is He Who has sent down unto you the Book (Qur'an) fully explained? And those whom We have given them the Book know that it has been sent down from the Lord with truth, so be not of those in doubt.
when you go for the drive, press on the gas, then open the door and kick the sales dude out and drive off ........
I kid of course ----------- not
So you're planning to save fossil fuels, but kill man instead?
oh:

yeah, I really don't know much about cars at all.
I think they are kind of flimsy but they save a lot of gas and are good for the enviorment. I don't like they way they look but I like the idea of them.
But like I said earlier I don't need a car. I drove one during high school because I took early classes and could not take the bus, but right now I have no need of one and kind of like not dealing with gas and traffic. If I need to get somewhere I can just take a bus for free or walk to down town. Honestly when I graduate I will probably look to where to move/work takeing transit issues into mind with the goal of haveing to drive as little as possible. I hate driving, if I can I will walk where ever I go and when I have to travel long distances I take the train if at all possible
I had to take public transportation all my life even in undergrad.. I was so happy to have my own car.. I think if I had a choice it would be either walking or driving.. I absolutely detest public transportation.. and I generally dislike people indiscriminately, prefer avoiding them unless it has to do with work.. being in a car is the only time one gets to have with themselves ... :smile:

I think an electric or hybrid car would be excellent for KSA though considering how hot it gets there..
In the pic it looks like chevy. Anyway, electric cars take too much time to recharge. Hybrids are better, but they are new technology so I'm afraid of reliability and maintenance costs.
It is not Al-Birr (piety, righteousness, and obedience to Allâh, etc.) that you turn your faces towards east and (or) west (in prayers); but Al-Birr is (the quality of) the one who believes in Allâh, the Last Day, the Angels, the Book, the Prophets and gives his wealth, in spite of love for it, to the kinsfolk, to the orphans, and to Al-Masâkîn (the poor), and to the wayfarer, and to those who ask, and to set slaves free, performs As-Salât, and gives the Zakât, and keep their word whenever they make a promise, and who are patient in extreme poverty and ailment (disease) and at the time of persecution, hardship, and war. Such are the people of the truth and they are Al-Muttaqûn (the pious).
how is the sequoia? also what do you think of the xterra? the new pathfinders are too large for my liking...
don't know who this dude is, but the older pathfinders had this nice wheel on the back, which gives it a safari look.. I am not into cars that are too polished or too sporty.. I like them rugged
you can always tell a Nissan or the better ones infiniti (same mother company) from the handle to open the rear doors it is always embedded.. as you can see from the pix ...

Sequoia is nice. But it is big, parking can be problem sometimes. Nissan Xterra is very good. Size is right too. But don't know about the old model.

I would recommend Honda CR-V or Acura MDX, but they are not off-roaders.
