I know far more people who don’t than do.

100% agree. My first car was a ‘98 sedan and I drove it back to back with a ‘03 sedan and it was night and day. Never been super on board with the RSX either... 

Counterpoint: ‘96-’00 was the best generation of Civic because they were the last to be truly light flickable cars. In ‘01 they got slightly fatter, slightly safer, and lost the great suspension and low nose for macpherson struts and pedestrian safety.

i was thinking a single cab ranger, as the rear tail light looks tall and slightly angled.

The image is from the HCSO. Best one I could find. No video that I saw. And we did this of our own volition, as we have in the past. It was not requested by anyone besides some readers who asked. Any tips should be sent to HCSO, please and thank you.

Brake light shape makes me want to say it’s a second gen S-10, but that’s all I’ve got to go on.

Digging through some numbers, I was surprised to discover that you weren’t just cool if you bought a manual back in 2008, you were also a frugal genius.

And this was the picture to lead a manual transmission story with?

Agreed.  But municipal no-bid contracts, you know... especially when beet juice is so very effective as a de-icing agent on road surfaces.  

Oh, I agree. I’ve been in a depression since November 8th, 2016.

Well thats another part of how the keep the wool over the eyes of the masses — keep the credit markets loose so people can get financed and live on the illusion that they arent poor. So long as people can eat and drive around in something not entirely crappy, they wont care enough to see that everythng is being stolen…

Lots of anecdata out there.  I had two friends that had these.. both had repeated and serious problems.  Mostly electrical.

2010 Honda Fit Sport in Milano Red.

Second gen Acura RL. Big enough to be comfortable, small enough to be fun. Nice interiors and Honda reliability. And Sh-AWD is one of the best AWD implementations out there.

First generation Lexus Is300, comes with the renowned Toyota 2JZ inline 6 motor. Can be had pretty cheap too 

Not to be crude...

We’re not asking for a return to the mechanical aspects of the 70s, just the color and trim options!

So basically the rise of Mitsubishi is upon us!

It’s a rebadged Mazda 2! Not some normal crap-ass Yaris. Also it’s got a really nice interior for the price.

HEY! The Yaris iA is a great car!
