Wife bought a 95 Neon brand new 2 door coupe 5 speed manual. Ran it to 210K miles and water pump pully came off and jumped timing belt, car was in great shape yet so put a Reman engine in it and ran it up to 310k miles when we sold it and was still running good saw it running around Bismarck for about 2 years after selling it, was a good 40 mpg runner but was getting pretty rattly by the time we sold it and trunk and door seals weren't the best anymore being a coupe.

white....then neon green. muffler fell off and I never replaced it. she was a sweet vehicle though. Had to turn the subs off when it was raining as it would vibrate enough and let water in. Could be worse I suppose. At least I've never owned a minivan.

Famous last words...

i'm glad i'm through that stage of life already! Only had 1 for a couple of years and that was enough.

The closest to a mini van that I ever owned was a 1984 Grand Wagoneer, . 11 MPG loaded, unloaded, or tugging the boat, was a beast just went everywhere with that thing

Still 2.34 at runway and you get 6 cents off if you buy some chicken so definitely worth it for the chicken and the 26 cents off compared to everyone else.

Only way a van sits in my driveway is if it's an A-team van

I think that was a personal shot! Are you casting aspersions good sir?

Yes, I've had a couple of mini-vans. How else to transport the bodies..?

Up until a couple years ago when I finally had to retire it, I owned a 1976 Jeep Wagoneer. I only put a couple thousand miles on it a year. Used is primarily for ice fishing cruising around the lake. That thing never got stuck! Carried a shovel and tow rope in the back but that was for helping pull other sad sacks out of places they probably shouldn't have tried in the first place. Quadra Trac kicked arse! Terrible gas mileage but I didn't drive it much.
