Hello, I am looking to buy my first car. I am 21, 6.2, 300lb, and have been driving my parents 2007 Pontiac G6 Coupe for a few years now. I would like to try to find a car with good head room, and something that rides nice. It also would not hurt if the stereo had AUX input, but I could just replace the Stereo if I needed to when I got the vehicle. I don't really want to get myself into a loan over 10K so that is what I kinda think I want to play with. If you need more information just ask. :)

    There's lots of suggestions over in the Best Vehicles for Taller Larger Drivers discussion.

    Do you care much about mpg? Got a commute? Want more of a road tripping rig? Want sporty or "trucky"?

    A Good MPG is always appreciated. Working I drive 22Miles. Then for college I drive 120 Miles. Sporty more then trucky. I just want to transport me. This is not for camping.

    Yeah, a spacious "smaller" car with good acoustics for your music sounds down your alley. I'm more of a box guy and would go for something like a Kia Soul. Maybe a Matrix/Vibe? Or maybe I'm still being too hatchy for your tastes. A Yaris or Optima or Maxima may work.

    Yeah if the car had good speakers that would be good to. Although if I wanted to later I could just install my own.
