It’s not physically any worse than the last $700 vehicle I bought, but I can’t do it. 

I was about to mash the No Dice button until I saw the luggage rack.

That seems to be the case here. Instant on, with a fade out.

Love these Saabs, and the Talladega is news to me. This one though... A box full of aftermarket parts you didn’t install? Why is that?

Y’all are crazy. This is clearly being dumped on an unsuspecting sucker. This car is a money pit when it’s in good shape.

I can’t wait for lowrider pickups to come back in style.

Bronco II?

Parts car. $380.

Yeesh. 

What was the original price on this car? I feel like it wasn’t far off from $4800.

I did a Volvo 240 blower replacement, and I don’t want to talk about it.

Most people don't do 90% of their driving in Moab. And if you were, an 80s pickup would be a bad choice even with 4x4.

I’ve gone all over the backwoods and deserts of the PNW in 2WD vehicles, sometimes even in FWD vehicles. If you need 4WD, you’re doing it wrong.

Plenty of these overpriced conversions out there, although this one is juiced a little more than most. I just don’t get it. Half price would still be too much. 

Pre-runners are good enough for 90% of what anyone driving a truck needs. Even off road.

It’s time to face reality. The days of purchasing an older Toyota pickup for daily use are over. These are collector’s items now.

Yep. I drove a 1980 Civic wagon and just seeing the dashboard photos in this article made me misty-eyed.

Mandated for BMWs, optional for other car makers.

Electric conversion.

My Mazda2's fuel gauge reads empty when there’s still about 3 gallons left in its 11.4 gallon tank. That’s way more than the usual reserve. I suspect this is Mazda’s way of making sure the pump is always submerged.
