    @gamecopr - An image-only signature should be less than 50kb in size, and be at most 500 pixels wide and 200 pixels tall.

    cheers in advance

    Vehicle History

    1976 Chevy Luv- This was actually my father's truck which I promptly hopped into as soon as he arrived home from work so that I could go to work.

    1981 Cherolet Impala Wagon- My Mom's car that I drove whenever I was unable to drive the truck.

    Those two vehicles basically covered my traveling needs through high school.

    1991 Chevy Cavalier- The first vehicle I bought on my own. I purchased it in '95 and it covered many miles traveling between home and wherever I was stationed in the army.

    1999 Olds Cutlass- The Cavalier started needing things replaced and each got more and more expensive, so I traded it in and bought the cutlass in '01. I'll never buy another vehicle with leather interior.
    Wrecked the Cutlass...

    1991 Toyota Corolla- Bought it dirt cheap just to have transportation. It was ugly and almost embarassing to drive, but I needed a car and had little money as depreciation killed me on the cutlass.

    1995 Honda Civic- Got the Civic once I recovered from the cutlass and it's treated me fairly well. It needs some major tune up service at the moment. I'll get around to it eventually, but now it mostly sits in the driveway. I do start it and take it for a spin once in a while.

    2002 Honda Passport- Finally got something 4wd. I drive it daily and love it. The gas mileage sucks compared to all the other cars I've had, but it's utility makes up for that to me. I had always cussed the idiots in SUVs flying down the interstates until now. In my little civic I felt every bump in the road which told me precisely how fast I was going. But this thing just floats over everything which makes it so easy to forget where the speedometer needle is at.
    I think the Aussie version of this vehicle is the Holden Frontera....


    OK, happy now Auslander...? ;P

    during thanksgiving break, the brakes went out in my truck. that wasn't a cheap repair. V.V but at least it's up and running again, with a strange leak that's either tranny fluid or engine oil. either way, i can't pay to fix it right now.

    unless you've got high arches and bad ankles, like me. in that case, it's cheaper to drive :p

    out of curiosity, what kind of gas mileage do you get? and what's the final weight?

    i'd love to take that thing out for a few weekends ^.~
