I Hand You $5,000 And Tell You That You Have To Pick One Of These Two Beauties To Buy And Drive Home. Which Do You Choose?


I Hand You $5,000 And Tell You That You Have To Pick One Of These Two Beauties To Buy And Drive Home. Which Do You Choose?

I love the what if game. It’s just too much fun. So lets place the Blazer vs Pinto What If game today. Let’s say I met you in the Home Depot parking lot and said here is $5,000 cash. It is yours with only one condition. You have to spend the entire $5,000 on one of these two rides right here and drive it home. Yep, it’s free. Not a penny of your own money will have to be put into either one of them in order to get home, because both are full of fuel and ready to rock. Decisions, decisions, right?

I mean the Pinto is cute. And who doesn’t like a Pinto. Weird people, that’s who. And maybe your husband. He might not like Pintos. Or lime green cars in general. But it is cute, so maybe if you take it home your wife will think so too! Hell, you could claim it is a present for her! I mean what could possible go wrong? I’ll tell you what could go wrong. She could bring up the fact that you have three other non-running projects sitting in the garage and driveway and that despite spending money on them, and using them as an excuse not to do any of the items on your Honey Do list, they don’t seem to be any closer to being finished than they were five years ago! Yeah, she’s going to LOVE you for bringing home a project. I can just hear it now. Hmmmm.

So how about he Blazer then? I mean come on, this sucker will have the Home Owner’s Association doing back flips before you even make it past neighbor Karen’s perch in the cul-de-sac. Maybe adding “your” and “Karen” to the I heart boobies message on the door will get her on your good side. Or, maybe this will make all the neighbors forget about your 4th of July “Celebration” burnout from 2018. I mean who knew that Karen had such a sensitive nose, or that she had all her windows open next door? It can’t possibly still smell in her house can it? And ladies, don’t think a ride like this is just for the boys. No, no, no ma’am. You climb into this sucker wearing a pair of Daisy Dukes and you’ll be the most popular gal in the neighborhood.

I’m sure either of these two would make someone proud. Maybe not you, but someone. I know I’d drive either one, but we want to know just which one you would drive if I handed you $5,000 but the only way you could have it was to spend it purchasing one of these two beauties.

    I’m sure that cranky guy from code enforcement would love that Blazer sitting in my yard. But the pinto reminds me of the one my buddie’s dad had. We used to drive it to concerts, then stop for munchies. I mean snacks, yeah snacks.

    I’ll take the Pinto, it might actually be worth 5K. Looks pretty good . . . for a lime green Pinto.
    That said, an underhood shot of the Blazer could sway opinion based on what’s there and what condition it’s all in. The boobie door’s gotta be worth several hundred on it’s own merit.
