My PT Cruiser was bought so that I could remove the seats to fit dog crates and because it had heated seats. But the primary reasons were one owner who 'order bought' this Dream Cruiser and she was selling it for $2500 under book price. I usually pay cash for cars/trucks. I never buy New.
I have a 1986 Ford truck with a 351 Windsor engine. [4 speed] I can probably move a house with it but the mechanical parts are outliving the body. {I love that it is 4wD} I love that I can see the ground when peering down from the top of the engine. That means I can fit my hands in there while working on it. I love that parts are cheap.

I miss my PT Cruiser, Nirvana, comfortable, easy in & out, good visibility, good power and mileage. You could use tw at your place, make the crops grow fast.

These two vehicles demonstrate innovation. A mid-1980 351 Windsor (carbureted V-8)) engine found in Ford Trucks and Mustang was typically 160 horsepower. A four cylinder engine in a typical PT Cruiser was 150 horsepower.
