First Car

Hello I am 20 years old and looking for my first car. I want something small with good gas milage safety etc. I was thinking Ford Focus or Chevy Cobalt. any thoughts would help a lot. My dad, who is partially helping me buy the car only buys American, so that plays in heavily. Thanks

Both of those are good choices. The Focus tends to hold its value better and handle better, so I would go with that.

Re: First Car

I would go with the Focus. Never been a big fan of Ford, but I'd pick it over the Chevy.
