Your women... how much for you women? |
I'll give you $500.00 for the SC.
That should be more than enough to get the fuel pump fixed on the S10 and even leave some left over for a 6-pack of your favorite beer. This way, everyone is a winner. You get beer, your wife is happy, your daughter is safe and I GET A NEW (to me) 911! E-mail me your address, I'll be up this weekend to pick it up! ;) Randy p.s. This advice is free! |
What is safe? A few years ago my wife and I were driving on a two lane road in NH traveling about 60. She was looking at something in the footwell. I looked down for a second. when I looked back up a car had crossed the centerline. I swerved so hard my wife hit her head on the passenger side door panel. I was driving our Camaro RS. Had I been driving our 'safe' Dodge Dynasty the car would have rolled and who knows what would have happened. My wife, which isn't even a 'car' person even realized the difference.
The point being the Camaro was safer then the bigger Dodge because of it's nimbleness. I'd say in that instance the S10 would roll also. |

I understand the safety concern, you are a new parent. If it were me, I'd sell the S10 and get a nice used Pathfinder, 4Runner, or a Sube wagon (something with a back seat and enough room to lug your "stuff" around). If money is real tight, then keep your cars and maintain them. Make your wife drive the S10 on days you have to drive your child to daycare. On occasion, I take my son with me in the Carrera but I'm not crazy about it. There are too many idiots out there.

For a subcompact, or whatever a 911 would be considered, it is pretty damn safe. I bet it will stop 50 yards shorter than that truck at freeway speed too, how is that for safety. Put a new fuel pump in the truck, keep the car. The kid will thank you in about ten years, or whenever you teach them to drive |
I drove both my kids around in my '86 911. These cars are over built (for racing) and are pretty safe. I would much rather be in the 911 than the S10 in an accident.
Show that top gear episode to your wife where they try to kill the 911. |
Realisticly though, if the 911 were in an accident with an SUV, the SUV would be on top of the 911 as it would simply drive right over it. Keep in mind that its a child in the car, not an overweight adult. I would rather be in the 911 than the S10 any day though.
