Hello Wazuans,

I am a lady and as such dont know much about cars.Laughing out loudly I have this fielder that I got at a very very good price. I have two days to decide whether to buy it.

Is there a very significant difference in fuel consumption between 2wd and 4wd or lack of parts that I may experience. The car is a 1500CC but someone was telling me it will consume gas like a 2000cc and I will have trouble getting parts.

Is this true; I wanna make a right decision. Kindly and honestly asking for your insights.

If price is right and you need a 4wheeler, go ahead and buy. A 1500cc is a 1500cc and differences in parts is mostly minimal. PS: normal 4WD is different from fulltime ALL WD.

I would go for it if it's Four-Wheel-Drive on demand and it's gearbox is Manual. Why is the price that good do you think?

Do we really have 4WD Fielders?I think you are talking about AWD(AllWheelDrive).That will make your car more stable especially on slippery roads but you will incur more on maintenance & fuel due to additional weight.The parts are available.Unless you REALLLLY need it,go for the 2WD version.
Formally employed people often live their employers' dream & forget about their own.

if it were me i would buy the awd if at any time i get to encounter slippery roads to the bundus.

The consumption and maintenance difference is negligible so long as u can reverse park like impunity at buffey park

all said and done consider a $ubaru fore$ter
A$$ymetrical awd. You will never touch the biwheelers.

2WD anytime. 4WD if fulltime katakunywa more. Most 4WD fielders are fulltime not on demand capability
