My only hope is that the revocation of the 'chicken tax' drives DOWN the price of US trucks and forces the Big Three to reconsider dropping their once-popular compact trucks. Back in the '80s I owned a Mitsubishi Sport Truck that was all the truck I needed with quite impressive performance for its day. I'd love to see…

Wouldn't be the first time the Russian Winter has given German vehicles problems.

These beasts actually pop up from time to time on military surplus sites, along with your dime-a-dozen M923s and M35s. Quite a few are in private hands.

Or was it a French speaking redneck?

The Mule

M37 Dodge Power Wagon, obviously

Introducing the 1967 Riddler Dunham Coupe. The 1.7l flat four (89 HP, 112 ft.-lb. of torque) mated to a 5-speed manual with overdrive is peppy enough to propel the compact 2,290 lb. car up hills and around town with ease. The interior, while basic, is well-designed and subtlety incorporates a charming design. Options…

Except that it is quite reliable, easy to fix and that parts are easy to find, as long as you're willing to ship them from another country.

First of all, I REALLY want one of these, so I'm inclined to say NP. Actually you know what? NP. Because in all the time I've spent in the Former USSR, I've NEVER seen one in such good condition. The money that you'd spend fixing up and federalizing a cheapo import would put you well over 11,500. When this one…

This is another one of those NP/CPs where I desperately want to say NP because I like these cars (for their Soviet-era awfulness, admittedly) but since this is about price, I just have to say CP.

All thing considered it's a quirky car in what appears to be in pretty good shape. You'd be the talk of the Saturday night car show. Imagine hearing "what the hell is that?" as people walk by. Or "the owner of this thing has to be a glutton for punishment". Either way, I'm sober right now, so CP.

If there is no rust on the underparts, meaning it's not only low mileage, but also well cared for, then this is a good price. Seriously, i'm not kidding you. If you don't believe me, check what a near-perfect example goes for in Yurrup (mobile.de!), and factor in importing it to the states. Also, if you keep it in…

The car is very expensive, but damn, it look brand new! I would like to find one Niva in that condition!

Honestly, I'd much rather detail the interior of one than drive it.

It's the worst car I have ever experienced.

You should do both. That's why I said "too much". In my case, I was using the shoulder-look the way that I would use a mirror.

I hope that this is sarcasm...

If parking in standard spaces rivals Apollo 13 in difficulty, you might be a bad driver. If you can't park, you can't drive. The inability to park is linked with poor spacial awareness of your vehicle and below-average lane tracking ability, which can lead to disastrous problems at speed.

Everyone is passing you on the right!!!

I'm impressed. That cheap plastic bumper is supporting almost the entire weight of the car.

#1 all day long. That's how I learned to drive here in downtown Chi-town. #7 is a great suggestion too.
