My dad has said I could have my G6 back(not sure what that means i gotta tlk to him)
Now my debate
88 MJ:
9MPG
Motor is strong
New Trans ax-15
TC NP231
D30 Front

8.25 Rear
New Leafs
New Shocks
Center Counsel Added
31's
some body rust
3'' Lift

09 G6 
30K Miles
Tints
Tinted Tails
100K/10 year Warrenty
 Hole in exhaust
 Broken Strut Plate Bolt

So heres why I am thinking this:

1. Cant afford 9MPG when i drive 60+ miles a day
2. Valve Cover Leaks(I have new vavle cover)
3. Needs New Tires
4.G6 gets 24+ MPG
5. Warrenty
6. all damage to car was from me
7. I have around $500 in G6

Now this is what im thinking
Buy a car and keep jeep
Buy Car then Sell Jeep

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Is your problem purely financial? Is the car paid for? If you own the title on the car it's obviously going to cheaper to fuel up, maintain, and repair.

Can you drive the car as a daily and park the jeep? Keeping it for recreation?

"Buy a car and keep the jeep"

"Buy a car and sell the jeep"

That kinda depends on how much money you have, which we wouldn't know. 2 vehicles is a big expense. I have a car for daily drivin, and the jeep sits in the shop. 2 vehicles to repair and maintain, (adds up even when doing it yourself), fuel, registration, and insurance. Depends on what you can afford, or are willing to pay for.

The Jeep is paid for. The car would cost $250 a month in payments(not sure but about) I would like to park the jeep and get a dd but i think that way out of budget

as much as I hate to admit it, a DD is more important than a toy.  You'll have to do what is best for you.
