Why are thoust in mine threadth?
Steal one![]()
Year: 1990
Make: Honda
Model: Civic LX
Extra: This is an older picture when I first got it, the clear coat is almost completely gone now. I recently installed a cold air intake, now it sounds a little throatier and has a little more get up and go to it. And it was pretty good before. I plan to do a lot more for performance, and maintenance of course.
Hell yea, I had one for my first car. A silly little puddle jumper with a crappy heater; but I loved it :3
Toyotas are indestructible.
They're a car you secretly love, but dont admit it in public.
They just arnt as sexy as you'd like
but like i cna talk, i drive the grandma WHITE version of an 05 lancer vOv
In this auto market, nothing's worth very much in trade. Two years ago, my van was worth almost four grand off the lot (13 years old at the time). Now, it's 15 years old and it's worth 500-1000. That cannot be a sign of age, it's a sign of the current auto market. So, don't feel sad.
Anyhow... I'm eventually (in the next few months or so) upgrading to a different vehicle, one that's in the family but basically mine now.
Year: 1994
Make: Ford
Model: F-350XL
Anything else: 7.3L Turbo Diesel (non-powerstroke), 5-spd manual, 3:1 transfer case, custom hub caps (actually, just some old Ford F-250 ones that Dad and I modified so they would fit over the F-350's hubs), front fog lights, block heater, rear flood lights, 5th-Wheel hitch, and MP3-CD player. Oh, also forgot... Dad installed a Banks 3 1/2" exhaust pipe on it 'cause someone threw a 1 1/2" pipe on it to save money some time in its past. Even at idle, it was choking.
The sad part about this truck is that in some cases it gets better mileage than my Astro does. Highway, I can get almost 26mpg out of my Astro, but with this Ford, it's only 20 or 21. However, in town, my Astro gets around 15-18mpg, and this truck gets... 19 or 20. lol. (by the way, I use imperial gallons, in case my mpg numbers look a little high).
Also, I'm upgrading mostly 'cause I have heavy tools for my trade, plus I need four-wheel drive. My van, once it hits half a foot of snow? It's toast. It's not going anywhere. One rear wheel starts spinning in place and it's all over but the tears. This thing? Weighs almost twice as much, gets similar mileage, and has a jesus great diesel weighing down the front axle. We've taken it over land slides.

My brother has two Fieros, a white and a red one too :P
My current truck (3rd truck) is a 1993? Chevy S10 (long bed) with 250,000 miles on it
My old truck (2nd truck) was about the same, but with a normal bed to it.
Before that I had a 92 GMC Sonoma... it died with 497,000 on it... basically the same thing as a Chevy S10 but... like a little bit smaller.
Ignore the fat me in the picture.
Jeez, somene drove those pickups to hell and back. :s
