'98 Isuzu Rodeo that we bought new.  160K+ miles and still going strong.  I'm hoping to get 300K miles before it gives up the ghost.  She still looks like new inside and out minus a little fading on some of the black exterior trim.  About the only major thing to go wrong is a starter, alternator, O2 sensor and EGR.  It's seeping radiator fluid/water, but not from the radiator...I think it's from the water pump, but it's going in the shop for a service Tuesday so hopefully it's nothing serious.



My wife drives an '06 Lexus GS430.  This car surprised the hell out of me.  I thought it would be a slug, but it is super fun to drive.  Only thing I didn't like about it was that it didn't have an aux input for an MP3 player so I had to buy a PNP kit for it (as well as an override PNP kit for the nav/DVD/BT bypass).



And my car hauler is an '06 GMC Sierra 2500HD.  I don't drive it very much because of all the daily miles...plus it's long as hell and kinda difficult to maneuver sometimes.  I haven't really done anything to it other than cosmetic stuff.  I have a Hypertech programmer for it.  I'll probably buy a cold air kit for it eventually.

gordy, look on fullsizedchevy .com there is somthing called the blackbear tune.. suposed to be incredible.


racerx.

i love me a d-max! my dad's is great. he has a LLY witch is dubed the worst d-max because of the overheating problems. i've yanked 16k through pa in the summer with the ac on doing 75-80 damn truck dont miss a beat! the fan will come on and the trans warms up but that thing is an animal!

i'd love a suv but none next to the tahoe tow. and.. i'm not dropping 50k on a suv.. sorry.

right now what i'm thinking is:
silverado 1500 crew cab
2500 crewcab d-max
2500 mega cab dodge with a cummins.

i'd be buying new.. every time i buy used i get fucked.

On the Hwy we get around 18, city 16/17. Not too bad.

[firebird_1252]

no thats not bad at all! i'd be towing with it also.. damn gn is a fat ass at 4000lbs

[Racer X]

I love my Duramax.  We have a lot of elevation changes here in California and towing with this is a breeze compared to a gas motor.  I haven't had a single problem with this truck.

[firebird_1252]

yeah you have the LBZ witch is leaps and bounds over the LLY and you also have the 6speed trans. i think yours is pretty good on fuel too.  what do you tow with it?

[Jordan_J]

Just an 06' G6...nothing special however I'm considering upgrading to an Evo or 4wd truck of some sort.

[Racer X]

I don't tow anything with it anymore.  I used to tow my race car... when I did such things.

evo's are fun.. real fun but they have glass trans. cant launch them and very tempermental.  if your going to do anything AWD do audi.. i'd sugest a b6 A4.. they respond amazing to mods. the 1.8t is great.. the 2.0t is amazing. my buddy put down 256whp in his gti with just a flash, intake and down pipe. from your plate it looks like your in ny? if you decide to go that route let me know. i'm good friends with the owner of force fed. eng.
