Care to explain? My dad had one and the thing ran longer than the frame lasted and it had over 300k by then. I think he may have replaced the transmission at 250k but he never changed the fluids, either.

I’m not saying you are wrong, I’m just curious as my experience is the exact opposite of yours.

Rodeo = Passport, and the Passport was made by Subaru in Lafayette, IN. Weird!

A friend of mine had a new (at the time) Trooper with the 3.2. It was a pig and the body roll was as alarming as the fuel consumption. On the other hand it’s off-road capability was most excellent and the quality was undeniable (particularly in contrast to the domestic garbage from the 90's I was usually driving).

Alternatively, the Amazon River.

That’s the new Echo Quench, sorry, forgot to mention it.

In the picture, I didn’t see the fire tv at first and thought the water pitcher was part of the group of echos.

It would drive me nuts. No pun intended.

The absence of physical controls for certain functions (Wipers, primary HVAC, etc) is idiocy. Those are things for which you should pretty much not need to take your eyes off the road. I predict.... pain.

Why buy a truck for on-road enjoyment (as opposed to utility or off-roading) when a car is better in every conceivable dimension?

I had a red 92 SE, super HICAS too. Turbo KA24de good for just about 270hp at the rear wheels, lots of work into it (I can’t take much of the credit, bought it mostly finished)...

My dad had one in the late 80s. Said it was the most fun car he’s had

I’m in complete agreement with you. I do this all the time. I spot something and decide it’s not worth saving so I smash it more. Old lady’s house with the falling in porch, smashed. That old desk sitting by a uhaul, smash. That lawnmower looks like it don’t run right, smash. A person with late stage cancer, smash.…

maybe, and likely. but that’s for the insurance company to decide, not this asshole.

The hinged windshield could be great for those rugged excursions to soccer practice. Tilt it forward for an unobstructed view of Madison and Jacob out there on the field as you sit in car and sip your latte, avoiding that other mom who is constantly on your ass because you bought non-organic postgame treats when it…

But like, French accordion music playing mournfully in the background right? 

Well, alrighty then.
Enjoy your fancy enclosed entrance driveway area place.

Sigh. You had me until I got to “...longer than the JK Unlimited frame...”

If offered in a 2-door this will be even harder to resist.

Leaf springs? Gawd I hope not....
