I think a Hyundai product might be an excellent choice when you consider their warranty. I understand Kia has extended warranties also.

I made the statement that the V8 is the way to go. I have owned V8s most of my life for the power/pulling capabilities. However to be truthful, I haven't owned a V8 in almost 2 years. I have a 4 cylinder Geo Tracker to use as a "mini-jeep" and my M35A2 with an inline 6 cylinder multifuel engine as a work horse.

I prefer an all wheel drive option. To me, they greatly improve handling in rain or mud. We don't get much snow here.

One final point, there were WMDs recovered in Iraq. No yellow cake, but we did find mustard gas in my AO. This is open source. I know of 2 soldiers in the Iskan area received minor burns from a mustard gas exposure.

Effects from mustard gas can take many hours. How did one discover that chemical since exposure does not create immediate symptoms? What is the first aid for Mustard gas?

TW,

Let's take the WMD issue to a new thread. I want you to make sure you document your time spent in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Also tell me about your time as a 74D

Over 10 years fighting the Bush/Cheney- and other Gulf-of-Tonkin-like decisions...
and over 65 years opposing nuclear/chemical/biological warfare.
