Ah. So it wasn’t you who started it. I’ve always been curious of the origin, now I know.

Wow that’s a long time. It’s great to see people joining and staying with communities for so long.

There’s a guy like that near me. Are you by chance in Denver?

Wow. It’s very rare I see someone else with the first post on a COTD. Really glad it’s back.

It’s sad that it’s true. I just clicked on the post at the bottom of another post. I must ask, how are you so fast with the CODT images?

I see it is. I must have been sucked in to the kinja wormhole again.

You really are the best commenter here.

My car has 230k and is falling apart. The previous owner didn’t maintain it very well it seems. 1/3 of our DD’s is the 01 mdx, at 170k, still fine. The final 1/3 is the 07 sentra, 75k, also fine. We’ve never had issues buying high mileage cars and I’ll continue to.

But when/if you are in the area, let me know. My grandparents have a full garage with a lift, engine hoist, tranny jack, air tools, welder, everything you can imagine.

IF you were local I would. Doubt you can make it to CO to fix ‘er though...

That’s an amazing project. I’d love to take that on. If you don’t mind me asking, how much was it?

Ever experience driving with a non-working fuel gauge, and having to guess when your car might sputter out and die? No? Well aren’t you lucky.

Look at a photo. The radio/climate control/cup holder is right in front of the shift knob.

My ‘98 sentra is worse. Tiny and RIGHT under the radio. So you can either use the radio or have a drink.

I’l like to have it.

I’d love to be flying that more than driving the truck. Sure the biggest thing I’ve flown is a 182, but I’m not a fan of the Colorado. I’d rather get a 90’s ranger 4.0, 5m/t or a dakota 5.2, 5m/t

Get free cars. Just sell them after 10 weeks and pocket the money for gas/other stuff.

Yes. My dad had one. A decent car for what it was.

How do they manage steering on 2 front axles?

Golf. One of the best autos in a car that cheap. Still sucks vs the 5 or 6 m/t.
