Poopingman Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Damn that is nice. I love German cars. But Imports as a whole...fast or not, people don't respect them over here much at all.

I live in Detroit, thus my "over here" allusion. Does not apply everywhere and I am aware. Read. Metal fans, check out my band!Still the King....

I don't want a big truck just to have a big truck.... In my experience (limited, I admit), small trucks are now more powerful than suv's or minivans. It makes a lot more sense to get one of those since they're able to carry more people and you're not really losing out on engine power. If hauling light stuff is all you're going to be doing, I suppose a small truck makes sense...I've just rarely seen that occasion :P "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffwilson99 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Small trucks in North America may not be. I guess I just associate North American trucks with big SUV's and things like Dodge Rams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Dunno, I was just really unimpressed the time I used a ford ranger for a few weeks. Terrible engine power. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Range_This11 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Demby, if you're looking to get a small hauling vehicle, I'd suggest trying to find an early 90's Jeep Cherokee. Those AMC engines NEVER die and they're great for hauling things around. Pre-1995/6 is what you're looking for. Check Craigslist, there are many for sale.

Range_This11 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Yeah, it's definitely different but those things are great. They are great from 0-25 so if you ever get stuck you can drop it in to four wheel drive; they are absolute tanks at getting out of ditches. If you can find a 4-door automatic the insurance shouldn't be toooo bad, but I can understand if you're dead-set on a manual.
