What else would I drive...




The winters here in WA are long, and crappy, but not very cold, not a lot of snow, and no salt. They're particularly crappy because it just rains... rains... more rain... then rain again... and MAYBE some snow... but it usually only lasts for a couple of days (while everyone crashes into each other in 1" of snow... ) then it's all cleared up, and back to rain...

I'll be driving my vette in just about anything, except snow, or ice storms...

On bad days, it will be one of my AWD 3000GT's. Nice days will be any of the three in my sig, whatever my moods picks that day.




Paul, I just noticed the "FOR SALE" in your sig. Why are you selling?

I have one of the ugliest looking trucks made, and I love it,, its so good... A Honda Ridgeline,, which if you dont need to haull really heavy loads,, is one terrific truck. Which proves the saying,,, " beauty is as beauty does"

When I was in northern Japan (Wakkanai), I drove a military track master. Like an enclosed bulldozer. Used two sticks to steer instead of steering wheel; held about 8 people.

Handled the 30 feet of snow beautifully.

No way can I drive my 'vert through the English winters.


So I have a 4x4 truck.
Had a try at the Nissan.
Diesel, 2.5L
175 BHP.
40.3mpg @ 60mph
To me that is really damn good consumption.
