Never thought I would see the day that someone would be trying to talk someone into buying a Civic on a mustang forum.

Lmao, not trying to talk him into it, just saying that that is what I am considering, and defending why I am doing it. Thankfully, the wiser members know my reasoning behind it.

well i have answers to some of your questions
you need to carry 3 people? pick the hottest girl, the two others are either dudes or a fat chick
as for the luggage thing i think youd be **** outta luck...
but heres an idea
buy the crotch rocket and a car
use the crotch rocket when its short little trips that dont needs people to be hauled or stuff to be towed
then when you actually have to do somthing use the car
i mean if you think about it youd use the bike alot more
think about all the driving you do
now think about how many times there people in the car with you or your carrying a bunch of junk
the bikes gonna come in more
but anyway im tired of arguing my point hell by all means get a vespa, ive seen a gang of mexicans ride around on those 
but screw the civic, support america
buy the escape or the mariner

How about I take your advice and buy the bike AND the Civic? Sorry guy, but go look them up. $22,000 for navigation + 51 mpg is good enough for me. That and the crotch rocket? Deal.

Don't need navigation, but it definitely doesn't hurt the car in my eyes. Ford ranger and a bike? Sorry guy, I did the whole '88 Ranger thing as my first truck. Cool paint scheme ... Was 3 colors. Light blue, faded light blue, and rust. I'll never own another ranger in my life. The Civic will last longer than the ranger (Although that little truck was running deep into 2004), and will get MUCH better gas mileage, and also look much better IMO.
Civic > Ranger.
It's not like I'm going to be going out and buying a big wing, lowering it, putting a turbo, and a bunch of stickers ...... Although ...

I've considered hybrids as well, but their added cost for repairs and what not has kept me away from them.

Ehhh.... not my cup of tea, but good luck, just be prepaired to drop more money into a car than you could of ever imagined, just don't say we didn't warn ya. Oh, BTW, you're gonna need new heads and a 4 barrel carb to make that baby fast by modern standards.
The 350 with a 4 barrel carb sounds amazing. I ran into my friend Ross with his old car, I dunno wtf it was but it had the 350 with a 4 barrel and it just sounds absolutely perfect.
Here we go, this is what it sounded like.

Hybrids are a pain in the ass to work on. I'm so glad I work for GM and not Toyota. No hybrids for me, especially at a Cadillac and GMC dealer. Nothing there gets better than 19mpg, lol.
