What's better for a teenage boys first car? A Ford Ranger (small truck) or a small sports car? - 1

I would have liked the Ranger. I was constantly hauling **** around the country.

Whatever they prefer

Sports car would be much better. Why would you buy a small truck? If you're gonna go big go all the way.

He'll get in less trouble in the Ranger.

A truck is definitely more useful and won't be anywhere near as expensive to insure. You can actually use the truck to make money by hauling stuff.

The pick up, any of them over a sports car.

A TRUCK

Insurance on a sports car will be huge.

IMO, sports and pony cars are never a good choice for teen driver. Get him a Ranger, it will be much safer for him and for everybody else.

At high speeds, the sports car is safer since it can maneuver better and stay stable at highway speeds. But it is unpractical.
As long as you drive slow, the truck is safer. And the truck is more practical for adverse weather conditions and trunk space.

  • Am looking to buy my first pickup what's better Ford Ranger or F150? I'm looking to buy my first pickup and i'm choosing between a 2000 Ranger or a 2000 F150 both with less then 130,000 miles. So i have test drove the F150 and i really like the truck but i haven't test drove a Ranger just yet so i just want to know which is a better truck. (Which would you choose) I want a single Cab for both I will try to test drive a Ranger soon before i make my choice thank you all
  • Which would be a better choice for a sports car: a Mustang GT or a Corvette c6? The mustang gt is 2005-2008ish, and the corvette c6 is 2005-2007ish. I'm leaning to the corvette since they're worth more money and I always have been a fan of corvettes, but then the mustang can fit 4 people while the vette only seats two. Which would be the better choice?
  • What's a good car for a teenage guy? - 1 So I have been looking for my first car and I really like the ford flex and Chevy suburban but basically any big suv are my favorites. Does anyone have any other ideas? I also like sporty cars like the Subaru brz. But big SUVs are my favorite. Does anyone have any cars that are god for my age and looks cool but doesn't make you look douchy or something a mom would drive
