This absolutely falls into the “an impulse buy that will surely be regretted later...but for now I’m gonna drive the snot out of it and love every minute of it” category. I’m in, NP.

Ehhhh, close enough to why-not money that you could probably drive it until it breaks and have no regrets.

Do those drop brackets today! Right now, call in sick, send the kids to
Grandmas! I have a 99 XJ, 4.5 RE lift with drop brackets and it is the smoothest riding vehicle I have even owned. I can’t use it as a daily driver because it is too soft (putting the sway bars back on might help). Off-road it has great flex…

2005 Subaru Forester XT. Seats 5, wagon, faster than a 350z, room for lots of groceries, available with three pedals (like mine)unique and a total sleeper. And it can off-road well even when lowered. I bought mine with 160k miles for $6,500 and that was 4 years ago. It has never let me down.

Needing 5 ECUs and needing all 5 of them to “agree” with each other isn’t my idea of exquisite engineering. This is one of the long list of cars I’d love to drive in mint condition once, but never own.

Like a show horse, something massive like a Clydesdale... best appreciated with some physical as well as existential distance.

This is a cyclonic pre-filter, which aids in dust rejection.

I’d go camping, but I like my bed. But you keep fighting the good fight.

The cynic in me is thinking that they were looking for something like that.
