ish, yeah.

She's gonna have a look at the ad later . . . .

Incursus

You realise she's not gonna let you useabuse it  


philoldsmobile

looked at one of those once before, with a view to using it as an MTB hauler..

TBH, not a bad drive, but the gearbox is nasty.. not a bad pickup, but nothing exciting..

nothing exciting..


I don't think Sammy is ready for an "exciting" RWD . . .

philoldsmobile

they are commercial vehicles, and the interior feels like one. all hard grey plastic, unlikely to even have carpet...

depends if those things bother you. For what i wanted one for it was perfect, but i wouldn't want one as an every day vehicle.. its kinda like a wheelbarrow with an engine..

Roadkill

Ahh, we'll see.  SHe mentioned it to me and I said I'd seen one come up quite cheap . . .



I'll let her make her mind up . . . She Ideally wants an S10 or similar but good ones are few and far between for good money.

philoldsmobile

ok, i see the carpet now, someone wanted a posh one!

nothing really wrong with them at all (ghastly gearbox asside) and i'm not knocking them, but its just a commercial vehicle, and the one i drove (albeit a couple of years older - a 92) drove like one too, choppy ride, noisy slow and crude...

if she actualy wants a pickup, then its ideal, but i reckon a mustang V6 convertible would be better..

Roadkill

NOT ANOTHER BLOODY MUSSIE !!!



I think she likes having the 2 seater so she gets out of giving lifts  . . .

A 3-seater pick-up would be in the same league . . .

philoldsmobile

rangers do seem a lot cheaper than S10's which seems odd to me as they are a lot more economical, and better inside (the S10 in bare bones is abysmal.)

i'd def go ranger over S10 - price for price you're gonna get a MUCH newer ranger...

So a Mustang with a rear seat delete kit.

philoldsmobile

motorcycle...

nothing hotter than a girl in leather *glazed drool*

Roadkill

I agree . . but don't think she'd go for that . . .

philoldsmobile
