Me likey!

Unrelated... When is the Afternoon Shift being released today? Or it’s just not updating on my Morning Shift page again...?

You might be surprised at the number of car models that are considered station wagons in most states, and even nationally. In PA, every single SUV and CUV is a wagon, no matter what frame it’s on. And basically every Subaru (see above).

That’s why the underside of my Disco II is so freaking rust-free. No joke. I live in PA. It’s gathered more rust since it’s been confined to the driveway.

“I’ve been living with it for a few months now, allowing the oil to saturate my shoes and pants legs” 

Okay, if we’re talking transmissions, that has always been their weak point (insofar as automatics go). I can attest to that on my 1994 Maxima. That being said, I wonder a lot if some of my 90's cars’ issues had a tiny bit to do with young me.

“Bought”

Holy crap! I was sure we would be at 65% CP, because early-aughts German car and all, but to my surprise, NP is winning! [right now]

But as far back into the early 90's as I can remember, Mitsubishi has always had quality problems. Any Nissan was more reliable than an Eclipse.

I think you pronounce it “Renault.” But I could be wrong.

Still got my fingers crossed for Nissan. A rebirth would be fantastic, if they can pull it off.

He was just trying to spot the Hondas in migration... smh

Bad

Man Rob, who’s doing your editing today? You’re usually pretty spot-on, but this made my brain hurt: “What we’re left with now is what is for all intents and purposes is an as-new NB Miata.”

Reluctant CP. I need cheaper motors to convert the Disco. I'll just let it hold down the driveway for another couple of years until they get cheaper. I want two.

Yep. I would pay $2900'ish for it, and I think that falls in nicely into your description.

I can’t find the link to be able to vote CP on the market, itself. Can you please resend?

I think I would kinda love this truck...for $2900. A 1978 Datsun pickup is just not worth $4 grand. I’m nostalgic for the timeframe, for old ‘Nissan,’ for the small truck, but too much money is too much money. Reluctant CP.

Cut the cord, man!
