Something with its original engine, 4 wheels, and seemingly mechanically sound, lol.... must NOT be made in Korea, and preferably NOT a Chrysler product (may make an exception for a jeep with the 6 cyl 4.0)....
Ideally, an F150 or Ranger (I hear both are easy on Insurance rates...)
Thanks,
Richard

Well.... we are now the proud owners of a 1995 Buick Lesabre, lol - $1300 - 105k - green with parchment carriage roof - one-owner (a "little old lady" bought it new -when she was 72- and sold it to us when she was 86 (fyi - she bought a new honda, lol)....
definitely drives a bit different than the focus, lol....

you know I see this more and more, little old ladies buying hondas, I'd much rather have them in a Honda then a Giant Land Boat!

Not saying Johns (03OrangeSVT) Mom is a little old lady but its kinda funny she drives a gold Civic with bolt ons!
