Welcome aboard Gus,
I agree with GS. Unless you need to travel or must break a rod down into 2 pieces for transporting, get a one piece. Generally, the feel and capabilities of a good 1 piece will be very noticeable when compared to a 2 piece. Also less chance for failure at the most unopportune time. If you can find a way to transport your rod external to your vehicle, it would be well worth the slight extra aggravation of a one piece surf stick. Most good one piece rods start around $140-160 figuring a 9' custom stick for casting wieghts of 1-4 ounces... Many from this site and others have gotten the 1088 Sabre from http://www.capecodtackle.com which is one of the better but still affordable 1 single piece surf sticks available. Obviously, nicer are available but the price can rise pretty quick. You can build one yourself for about $100
Good luck and Meery Christmas...
