I've always been a fan, but never owned one.

That's nice looking truck. A little weird but cool. thumbup1.gif

I once drove a Ford Ranchero in the early 70s that was purported to have a 460 ci engine in it. Brand new. The combination of terrible tuning and a low rear end made it one of the most sluggish accelerating vehicles I'd ever driven. Now, the Bricklin with the 351 Cleveland engine in it had some major scoot, but the roof (brand new) leaked like a freaking collander. Jaysus Christo but that thing was a P.O.S.. Word!

Thanks for the link, Ray. icon_smile.gif

Oldest cousin has a Mitsubishi Montero and his brother a Ford Explorer, I've had the chance of driving both and they're really good. I kinda like 4X4 though I'd rather have a sports car.

My next vehicle will definitely be a mid sized crew cab truck with 4 wheel drive. No messing about for me. If I had the glue I would definitely have multiple vehicles, including a couple of motorcycles (definitely a Ducati and a Suzuki) and a sports car/convertible.

Ducati's a fine bike. Good taste B. thumbup1.gif

Thank-you, G. I would also consider getting the Suzuki TL 1000.

Gotta admit, that is kinda cool looking. But pap is right, if you want a truck...that ain't it.
Peap
the car that hauls...wasn't that the slogan for it back in the day?

I'm not really a truck person...but if I had to get a 4 wheel drive...I'd get a impreza and get all wheel drive... thumbup1.gif
still my car and gets bad ass traction in snow...

Hmmmm........

I guess my beef with this is that it ain't foot or horseback, just like that P.O.S. the PT Cruiser. Sorry if anyone likes those little junk haulers but they're crap. My accountant's wife had one for a little while and then, boom, out the door. Shitty visibility, windows fog all the time, really hard to back up, poor build quality (for her) and my two main beefs: looks like shit and doesn't do "car" or "truck" well.
