What kind of car shoukd I get. A chevy or a ford?

Answer 1

My first two car was a Chevy and it was very good to me - no breakdowns and just routine maintenance. My second car was a Ford and I ended up selling it with over 160,000 miles on it without having any major repairs other than routine wear and tear. I think either one would be a good choice. If I were you, I'd test drive several models from each brand in your price range and don't forget other brands as you may be surprised with what you find. My constant advice for anyone buying a car is to read Consumer Reports.

Answer 2

well if its a truck i recommend a ford. It may not be as classy as a chevy, but if taken care of it will last u a life time. If your getting a car i wouldnt recommend either. I would go with a honda, or a mazda. They both have durable transmissions and engines in them. Fords also are easier to work on if your a mechanic in my honest opinion. Never ever go with chrysler, due or dodge due to the Fact that they have the worlds worst transmissions ever made. BUT THE KEY WORD IS TAKE CARE OF YOUR CAR AND IT WILL LAST YOU A LONG TIME. AND YOULL DO GOOD.

Answer 3

If you are looking for a car than you should consider a Toyota or a Honda. Look at Consumer Reports or any other source. Ford and Chevy are near the bottom on reliability. If buying American made concerns you don't let it. Most Toyota and Honda cars are built in the U.S. unlike the Ford and Chevy which are mainly constructed in Mexico and Canada.

Answer 4

chevys are expensive to buy and fix but don't break down as much as a ford,fords on the other hand are cheaper to buy,and parts are cheap,but break down more often. ps i worked as a mechanic for 4 years and this is solely my opinion on the amount of breakdowns as per what i saw on regular customers cars as i would see the ford owners more often than the chevy owners.hope that helps your decision

Answer 5

just me but i been a die hard chevy fan all my life and im 40 now i still dont under stand why chevy stop makeing the camaro the only thing i hate is if you get any thing with a v 8 you pay thru the nose if you look you can find used cars and trucks with low miles and will be just as good but it will be 5000 to 10.000 cheper the grand prix is a good example new its a25.000 with just 15.000 miles it will be $16.000 i would never buy new if it was me hope this helped you

Answer 6

Neither, get a dodge. haven't you noticed how ford and GM are declining their US sales, while Daimler Chrysler is increasing? Also haven't you heard of the financial trouble that ford is in? I know that there is a rumor that GM will buy Chrysler, but trust me, that is just for publicity. Gm will be long gone before Chrysler is done. I am not saying that ford is incapable of making a good vehicle, it really depends on which category. Lets say a family sedan, for example. The ford 500 and Chrysler 300 are priced about the same, are about the same size, but what are really the differences? Well the 300c has 47 more hp, german engineered, and more features for the price. Good luck on whatever you choose!!

Answer 7

I would buy a Chevy . Fords fall apart .
I used to have a ford and that's what it did.
Chevrolet's are better build and last a lot
longer.

Answer 8

A ford. Chevys suck

Answer 9

Stay away from Ford, they will screw you with no service.
Family bought 10 Fords until 1984 when Ford totally screwed us.
Never again!
Also, different criteria whether you buy new or used.
New, buy everyones favorites, they keep more value.
Used, buy the pariahs, they lose most value quickly and are cheaper to buy.

Answer 10

Which ever you like. They both are good and have ups and downs in different models. Find what you like then ask about known problems with that certain car.
