6 of 1, half dozen of another

It essentially means that something is the same thing. The two things you're talking about are really similar.

Tom: "Hey we can either rent a Ford Taurus, or a Mercury Sable."

Eric: "well 6 of 1, half dozen of another."

Six in one-half dozen

A shortened form of "six in one-half dozen in the other".

Used to represent or describe the same outcome of two circumstances.
50/50.

You could take the highway, or take city roads. It doesn't really matter, they both take 10 minutes, it's six in one-half dozen.

six of one, half dozen of the other

A situation which could go either way. Maybe good or bad. 50/50. See: the English phrase rice and chips.

It was six of one, half dozen of the other, so what could I do?
