Paul, I like those too,kills me to use it in the salt though. keep it clean underneath. Spray it with some kind of oil (spray chain lube) all over the chassis and door bottoms,should help keep it good. If I ever go someplace warm to live im getting one as a DD.

LOL...if i get it (the wife's giving me grief about "another old car") it will get the $10 wash & undercarriage in the winter as needed (& some rustproofing underneath it) Very Happy

Hey...I didn't come here to made sport of. Razz

That thing earned my respect transporting my engine back and forth (twice) to the builders shop. It's just time for something different and less "Hockey-Dad/Soccer Mom-ish".

Just A little ball busting. Before I added a truck to my fleet i used to use my wife's (former) Buick rendezvous to do that type of truck stuff. Note: that thing was a turd I wouldn't reccomend anyone own one. Beer

LOL- It's all good. Wanna hear the worst part? I traded in an 04 Durango Hemi when we bought the van. Wife had to have one once we had the little one (#3)- the Durango was to tall & a PITA for her to get the baby into. This next one, whatever it ends up is going to be my choice.

However if I post that I ended up with a Honda Accord, please...shoot my knees out.

I agree .... I'm a big fan of the 3.8 and 4.3 motors .... stay away from the 3.4 and 3.1 motors

Which would you look at for daily transportation?
