What are the codes for that?

Sorry, I can't answer that until you answer the Camaro Mullet question in that other thread.

The Cellar Car has car cancer. Rust. (Fuck car cancer!)

I had seen one of the seven warning signs around on the of the bumpers, but it didn't occur to me that it could have spread more widely.

My mechanic, who is awesome, gives it a year. They rust-proofed it (undercoating!!) with a can of some spray to give it the last year run.

That's all fine, it's about what I expected. I'm going to get it to 200k and then plan my next ride.

If all goes well with foot's get rich quick scheme, you'll be able to drive anything you want!

I may need AWD to leave home in the winter

Griff · 10-27-2012, 09:08 AM

what kind of 4x4 says UT?

First thought is Impreza WRx

An R32 would be better, but they are too damned much money. Top 5 in resale value. Sucks. I want one....

Griff · 10-27-2012, 09:25 AM

I give props to my SX-4. I don't know what the used market looks like.

Undertoad · 10-27-2012, 09:29 AM

My mama is considering giving me her Forester when she gets a new vehicle

There is almost nothing UT about it.

Griff · 10-27-2012, 09:32 AM

Big enough for band gear though.

He needs a full-blown hummer.

yeah, I'm against that.

You'd have guys hitting on you daily.

ZenGum · 10-27-2012, 05:49 PM

How else do you think he'd get his hummer blown?

Undertoad · 02-06-2013, 12:04 PM

The Cellar Car is in for wheel alignment as it's pulling to the right. When a car has cancer it can go at any time, so if she has to be junked today...

None really available at the $5000 price point

It's gonna be the 1999-2001 Pathfinder?

jimhelm · 02-06-2013, 02:51 PM

Should I be keeping an eye out then?
